, has found out the hard way that some businesses — and even bands — are drawing a hard line on requiring vaccinations to come back to work. He posted on his social media Tuesday that he’s been ousted from the group because he won’t agree to get the COVID vaccine.

“Since I am unable to comply with what is increasingly becoming an industry mandate, it has recently been decided that I am unsafe to be around, in the studio, and on tour,” Parada wrote in a multi-part Instagram post. “I mention this because you won’t be seeing me at these upcoming shows. I also want to share my story so that anyone else experiencing the agony and isolation of getting left behind right now knows they’re not entirely alone.

Parada gets more philosophical about his resistance to mandating vaccinations as the post goes on, saying that he also supports those who are anti-vax because of “an understandable distrust” in the system, and noting that “half the population is having a shockingly different reaction to these jabs than was expected.”

People like Pete who cannot have the vaccine on medical grounds should not be excluded. This is why everyone else should be vaccinated, so that people like him can continue to live their life. This makes no sense.

'Conspiracy of One' didn't wanna play 'Hypodermic'

clickbait asl, the drummer couldn’t get the second dose as the first one almost killed him, due to a medical condition. he made the choice to step down for his own well-being

Only right.

First off: the story here is—The Offspring are still a group? Second: he should be kicked out.

He won’t come out and play?

The band's got a drummer and they hate that dick. They tell me everyday He wants more dinero Not to get vaccines Well my band, you gotta say I won't pay. I won't pay ya. no waaay

It's as much about protecting him as it is the rest of the band, but I guess he doesn't see it that way.

If they’re in need of a new drummer, I’ve been fully vaccinated for a few months 😁

This band's got an antivaxx, man, they hates that bitch They tells me every day They says, 'Man, I really gotta lose my drummer In the worst kind of way'

He wasn't behind my favorite songs anyhow.

That drummer is a very good writer But, sadly wrongheaded

The others can come out and play.
