Karma alert! After telling everyone that the coronavirus is a “hoax” and the lockdowns are unnecessary, Ted Nugent has been diagnosed with COVID-19

Look, you never want to gloat about someone’s misfortune, especially when it comes to someone’s health. But try to hold in your guffaws as I tell you that Ted Nugent, a guy who has spouted off about the COVID-19 hoax, anti-vaccine theories, and that the whole thing is overblown, has been diagnosed with the coronavirus.

Ted, an anti-masker (those who wear them are “sheep”) has found himself in an awkward situation. In a Facebook Live stream from yesterday (April 19), he had this to say:

“I have had flu symptoms for the last ten days. I thought I was dying. Just a clusterfuck. I was tested positive today. I got the Chinese shit. I’ve got a stuffed up head, body aches. 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.”

Godspeed, Ted. Here’s hoping you have a full recovery. But what’s your position on COVID-19 now?

  • His current position? Probably still bent over, head up his own ass.

    You just know he’ll be going on and on about how it’s “just a flu” and no big deal, and in a week or so, he’ll be discussing how its just like the common cold he’s fully recovered.

    Idiot.

    • Chinese shit? It’s funny how the fallback from deny it exists is just straight up racism / xenophobia. FU Ted!
