“Phil would like for his listeners to know that while he has never been an ‘anti-vaxer’ he regrets not being more vehemently ‘pro-vaccine,’ and looks forward to being able to more vigorously advocate that position as soon as he is back on the air, which we all hope will be soon.”
Valentine, in a statement released by his radio station, said this after he had gotten the virus: “However, Farrel swiftly changed his perspective about the vaccine after he contracted the virus, his friends and family said.” “Farrel, a vocal supporter of former president Donald Trump, said on his Facebook page last month that inoculations were ‘promoted by people who lied all along about masks, where the virus came from and the death toll.’” Valentine and Farrel changed their views on vaccines and masks as they grew sicker. That they spread their anti-science views on masking and vaccinations only to die from the very virus they scoffed at makes their lives (and deaths) a tragedy of significant proportions. As are the deaths of Bernier, Farrel and Valentine. By July 30, however, Caleb was taken by a relative to the emergency room at Shannon Medical Center.’”

It isn’t interested in whether you believe in it – or subscribe to the best scientific guidelines about how to slow its spread. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: The coronavirus doesn’t care whether you are a Republican or a Democrat or don’t follow politics at all. They have zero to do with what political party you belong to. Masking, in study after study after study, has proven to be – along with social distancing – our single best tool to prevent the rapid spread of the virus, up to and including the highly contagious Delta variant. The vaccines have been readily available for months, with many states and localities offering incentives – financial and otherwise – for those willing to get the shots. The three Covid-19 vaccines have each proven incredibly effective at lessening – and almost eliminating – hospitalizations and deaths of people who get the virus. Just last week, Nashville-based host Phil Valentine, 65, died from the virus. Earlier this month Dick Farrel, a Florida-based talk radio host, passed away from the coronavirus.
