The Offspring fired him from the band over the Covid-19 vaccine.
Parada shared the news on social media on Monday, writing, Given my personal medical history and the side-effect profile of these jabs, my doctor has advised me not to get a shot at this time.”
Parada also revealed that he had the virus over a year ago and experienced mild issues, but his battle with Guillain-Barré Syndrome has gotten more difficult. 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, wrote Parada.
Pete Parada, the drummer for the punk band the Offspring, said that he will not continue playing with the group because he refuses to receive a Covid-19 vaccination. Parada, who has Guillain-Barré syndrome, is immunocompromised and said his doctor advised against getting the vaccine at this time.
