It turns out that Jennifer Aniston recently had to ditch people in her life because of their vaccination status.

In an interview with InStyle released on August 3, the actor said "it's a real shame" that there are still many people who are anti-vaxxers or "don't listen to facts."

"I've just lost a few people in my weekly routine who have refused or did not disclose [whether or not they had been vaccinated], and it was unfortunate," Aniston revealed.

Aniston noted that she feels people have a moral and professional obligation to inform others of their vaccination status since people aren't locked down together or being tested every single day.

"It's tricky because everyone is entitled to their own opinion — but a lot of opinions don't feel based in anything except fear or propaganda," she said.

Recently, U.S. President Joe Biden urged all states to offer $100 to anyone who gets fully vaccinated as an incentive to push them to go out and get their doses.
