SAS Australia star Koby Abberton has admitted he's an anti-vaxxer in a new interview.
Speaking to Fitzy & Wippa on Tuesday, the former Bra Boy likened the deadly virus, which has so far claimed more than 4.5 million lives worldwide, to 'a tropical flu'.
Speaking of his adopted homeland of Bali, Abberton said: 'There's definitely the elements of people being sick, but it's you know, it's like that with the normal flu.'

He then commended fellow SAS competitor Jana Pittman, before slamming her stance on vaccines.
'If there's going to be a woman leader in Australia that's our woman,' he said, before adding, 'as soon as she changes stances on mandatory vaccines which is absolute f***ing garbage.'
'As soon as she changes that she's our PM that chick, she's a legend.'
Vaccines have been proven effective at seriously reducing the chances of serious illness and death related to Covid, with billions of doses already having been administered worldwide.

The interview comes after Abberton delved deep into his past during an interrogation on Monday night's episode of SAS Australia.
The 42-year-old, who is one of the founding members of the notorious Bra Boys gang, recalled how he 'lost everything' when he was found guilty of perverting the course of justice in 2005 following an incident involving his brother Jai.
Jai had shot dead standover man Tony Hines in 2003, but was found not guilty of murder two years later on the grounds of self-defence.

Telling his story to the directing staff, Koby began: 'This man, Tony Hines, who was one of the Bra Boys, he believed my brother had done something to his girlfriend.
'He thought my brother was with his girl. As it happened, they got into an altercation in a car and Tony was shot.
'What ended up happening [was] they went and threw the body over the cliff, and drove back to my house. My brother comes back covered in blood.'
Koby explained that his brothers coming home with blood on them was a 'regular occurrence', so he didn't think to ask questions at the time.
