Actress Pooja Bedi is facing backlash on Twitter due to her anti-vaxxer behaviour. The actress has been calling the mass-vaccination drive against Covid-19 in India 'sinister' and 'illogical'. Twitterati compared her tweets to Whatsapp forwards and even asked her to 'shut up'.  Pooja Bedi who often tweets about Covid-19 protocols on Sunday had tweeted, "Prior to vaccine 99% of those infected survived covid. Post vaccine the stats remain the same. Why the hysteria/ pressure about vaccination? The discrimination towards the unvaccinated?& What about #vaccineSideEffects No compensation after forcing them to #Vaccinate ??? #COVID."

Many Twitter users disregarded her stance and called her out. One of the users shared a popular Bigg Boss-inspired meme featuring Pooja Mishra, and wrote, "Pooja, if we had to hear half-baked, half-assessed arguments against #CovidVaccine, we will log in to our Whatsapp groups. Do us a favour, please shut up @poojabeditweets." She wrote back, "That's the wrong Pooja."

Another wrote, "How much research have you done on this topic before posting it. It’s so insane. Even the virus is mutating to survive and so we are. Drastic drop in severe cases and mortality, UK is the example."

"Unvaccinated pose risk for everyone, you can’t expect to be rewarded for stupidity," tweeted another.
