A Mexican TV anchor screamed at anti-vaxxers in an extraordinary on air outburst, branding them as a 'gaggle of morons'.

Leonardo Schwebel, a presenter for the Mexico-based Telediaro Guadalajara, ranted at those who have refused to be jabbed and told them to at least wear a face mask properly.

Schwebel, who angrily screamed at the camera during a live broadcast this week, accused the anti-vaxxers of 'hitting the breaks for the entire world'. 

In an emotional outburst, Schwebel said: 'You damned anti-vaxxers, gaggle of morons.'

Schwebel, who was waving his face mask angrily during his tirade, screamed: 'Stop with your bulls*** and at least put on a goddamned face mask and stop hitting the brakes for the entire world! 

'Yes you anti-vaxxers, you are a moron! Put on a face mask!'   

Schwebel went on his rant at a time when Mexico is seeing a rise in positive Covid-19 cases since the new year, registering more than 260,000 infections in the past week, a new record high.    

And only 58 per cent of the population have been double jabbed while 63 per cent have received one dose of the vaccine.

Schwebel told Telediaro in an interview after his outburst: 'Sometimes you have to shout for people to get on.

 'If I had said it normally — "sir, please, please, put on the mask, I ask you please, believe me," I would not be here with you today.'

Schwebel said that his message was important at a time when Mexicans are experiencing soaring Covid cases.

His rant comes as Mexico's triple-vaccinated President Andrés Manuel López Obrador announced that he has beaten COVID for a second time - and that the symptoms of Omicron were mild.
