Ted Nugent tests positive for coronavirus he called fake: 'I thought I was dying'.
Rocker and COVID-19 denier Ted Nugent has tested positive for the coronavirus.
The right-wing rock musician revealed in a Facebook video that he is seriously ill with the potentially deadly virus he has insisted is fake or not very serious, reported Consequence of Sound.
"Everybody told me that I should not announce this," Nugent says in the video.
"I have had flu symptoms for the last 10 days.
I thought I was dying -- just a clusterf*ck."
"I was tested positive today, I got the Chinese shit," Nugent added. " My God, what a pain in the ass.
I literally could hardly crawl out of bed the last few days…
So I was officially tested positive for COVID-19 today."
Nugent downplayed the pandemic and various mitigation efforts as recently as last week, and even after his infection questions the safety and necessity of the COVID-19 vaccines.
Yet, even after his own infection, Nugent isn't about to change his stance on COVID-19, especially when it comes to vaccines."
