Olivia Newton-John, who is currently battling stage four breast cancer, has no plans to get vaccinated against the coronavirus anytime soon.

Speaking to the Herald Sun on Sunday, the Grease star, 72, who’s a keen advocate for natural alternatives like medicinal cannabis, revealed she won’t be receiving the coronavirus vaccine.

“Not at this point, no,” Olivia said.

While the Aussie actress didn’t elaborate on her decision, her daughter Chloe Lattanzi, who runs a medicinal cannabis farm in Oregon with her partner James Driskill, was more than happy to share her own take on vaccines with the publication.

“I’m not an anti-vaxxer,” the 35-year-old said. “I’m anti putting mercury and pesticides in my body, which are in a lot of vaccines. To me real medicine is what comes from the earth. I think people trust vaccines because the doctor says it is safe, I used to.”

Chloe went on to say that she wished she had never been vaccinated for anything. “I’m not an anti-vaxxer, but if I had a chance to take herbs and plants as a baby rather than have toxins injected into me I would have done that.”

Olivia was initially diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992, resulting a partial mastectomy and chemotherapy. She then went into remission until 2013 when the cancer returned, with the actress undergoing another round of treatment. However, the star was diagnosed once again in 2017 after a tumour was located in her lower spine.

In the past, Olivia has said medicinal cannabis is a key part of her treatment for stage four cancer. In a chat with the Herald Sun last year, the actress revealed her cancerous tumours had shrunk and credited the use of medicinal cannabis and natural therapies for the unexpected turnaround.

“When people hear metastatic breast cancer or cancer there’s still this stigma that people don’t believe that you can recover, well you can,” Olivia told the news outlet.

“There are ways. I know lots of people who have been given really terrible diagnoses who have done really well with the right treatment and they’re not always chemo and radiation either.”

She’s previously described cannabis as a “healing plant” and she said using it isn’t exactly what people typically envision.

She said in September 2019: “Along with my other treatments, the cannabis really helped me. I was able to wean myself off the morphine with cannabis, which is a safe way to do it. You don’t die from cannabis.”

She also said cannabis had the potential to help people manage a lot of illnesses and said she had a lot of belief in the drug.
