Billie Eilish claims COVID-19 vaccination kept her from dying: 'It was bad'

Singer Billie Eilish claimed if she hadn't received the COVID-19 vaccine, she might have died from the disease.

During an appearance on Sirius XM's "The Howard Stern Show," Eilish, 19, revealed she came down with a breakthrough case of coronavirus in August. 

"I didn’t die, and I wasn’t gonna die, but that does not take away from how miserable it was. It was terrible," Eilish told Stern. "I still have side effects. I was sick for, like, two months almost."

"I wanna be clear that it is because of the vaccine that I'm fine," she continued. "I think if I weren’t vaccinated, I would have died, because it was bad."

The "Ocean Eyes" singer clarified what she meant by her case of coronavirus being "bad."

"When I say it was bad, I more just mean that it felt horrible," she added. "But really, in the scheme of COVID, it was not bad. You know what I mean? When you’re sick, you feel f---ing horrible."
