Canadian Covid denier who was being prosecuted for breaching lockdown to attend a flat-earth convention is found dead days after posting video saying he had cough and chills ‘but it isn’t Covid, because that doesn’t exist’

//He had claimed to be taking ivermectin, an anti-parasite drug, to treat his illness.

Ivermectin is popular among anti-vaxxer communities as a treatment to Covid but health officials in the US and Canada have repeatedly warned people against using.//

He was just an odd ball. Wrong in his views but entitled to believe what he wants IMHO.

The story here seems very muddled though so I'd take a lot of it with a pinch of salt.

we have our very own covid denier on AB
NJ - covid = flu

but 186 000 have died NJ - no ! no ! they died from something else and it was govt relabelling by the men in whitehall who know much better ( see other threads)

and Naomi - crazy mad views on Measles vaccine.... see the threads on Fiji and measles and 129 child deaths unvaccinated ( from Measles of course, silly: this is AB)

[Peter Pedant]

a muddled account is entirely consistent when we are considering covid denial innit

[Canary42]

I wonder how many innocent people the selfish bustard infected before he died. Good riddance anyway, no sympathy at all.

[Sqad]

Canary......we have no evidence that he was suffering Covid infection.

[Khandro]

Deceptive, stupid reporting: an anti-vaccer isn't a "covid denier" Nobody could deny the existence of covid with 5m. deaths worldwide.

[bobbinwales]

Agree the story should be taken with a pinch of salt but he was more than just an anti vaxxer Khandro- if the quote is true from the footage "but it isn’t Covid, because that doesn’t exist" then that sounds like a covid denier to me. But as squad says we dont know caus eof death yet and even if covid were even a factor

[Prudie]

I have read endless threads on AB about Covid over the last 18 months and I have never seen NJ say it doesn't exist just his view on how it's dealt with divides opinions - and very intelligently he puts forward his arguments too.
PP I think it's disgraceful you can get away with calling him a covid denier (plus have a pop at Naomi as usual) when neither of them are even on the thread.

[Khandro]

I had my 2 covid jabs (Moderna), a week later I fainted -1st time in my life - & a month later I had a stroke - thankfully leaving me without any issues. Now my doctor suggests a 3rd booster jab & I say, 'no way José, I'd rather be ill than paralysed'.
So I'm I suppose an anti-vaccer now

[AuntPG]

Of course, he was a Covid denier, just listen to the video, the words come out of his mouth " Because it isn't Con-vid cos that doesn't exist"

I have had Covid and later the two vaccines ,and am absolutely not going to have a third, due to various side -effects which are still on-going 5 months after having had the second dose. I would rather take my chance and take precautions than have another jab.

Better dust off the Darwin Award.

//NJ - covid = flu//

I've asked before, Peter, that you substantiate that claim and you never have (because you cannot). You've caught a disease from which many government Ministers suffer but you may be surprised to learn that if you spout something enough times it does not make it a fact.

I am not a Covid denier. It exists, it is a nasty disease for a small minority of those who contract it and a small number of them will die from it. It is a mild irritation for the vast majority.

What I question are the tactics devised to deal with it. And that's somewhat different.

[New Judge]

PS - Thanks, Prudie. I hadn't read your reply when I posted.

[naomi24]

PP, 10.16. That is a lie. Leave me out of your manic ramblings. Your obsession gets the better of you.

[AuntPG]

// it is a nasty disease for a small minority of those who contract it and a small number of them will die from it. //

I'm sure the families of the 142,000 people who have so far died of Covid in the UK will take great comfort in that fact.

[bobbinwales]

Yes PP as misstaed Naomi and NewJudges views but I can see where his coming from, especially as newjudge is still saying only a small number will die from Covid. To me over 140000 -or 180000 (covid on death cert)- is a lot more than a small number and still gives the wrong impression

[ToraToraTora]

PP is a disgrace, dunno why he is exempt from the rules.

[bobbinwales]

I like his posts generally. His just using humour and satire or exaggeration to make good points

[Khandro]

Give 'em hell Peter

[naomi24]

That’s not humour, bobbin. He just tries to disguise it as such.
