Give this lady a Darwin award (posthumously, of course).

On Tuesday, the Cape Cod Times reported that Linda Zuern, a former member of the Bourne, Massachusetts Board of Selectmen and a Trump-supporting figure in the local Republican Party, had died of COVID-19.
Zuern died at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston of severe complications caused by COVID-19, according to the report. She was 70 years old and had not been vaccinated.
"She was a strong woman who believed in speaking the truth and defending our freedoms in America," Republican State Committeewoman Deborah Dugan told the Cape Cod Times. Dugan was at Zuern's bedside when she died. "I would describe her to people as a little woman but a mighty warrior."
For months, Zuern, a member of the pro-Trump group the United Cape Patriots, had promoted conspiracy theories about the pandemic on Facebook. She has shared articles accusing the World Health Organization of a coverup of the "Wuhan Virus" and claiming COVID-19 is cover for "globalists" to usher in "U.N. Agenda 2030" — a sustainable development initiative right-wing conspiracy theorists assert is a plot to create a one world government.
Zuern also expressed support for the QAnon conspiracy theory, posting their creed of "WWG1WGA" (Where We Go One, We Go All).
Zuern promoted the use of hydroxychloroquine as a treatment of COVID-19 during a Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates meeting in December and questioned whether officials "had looked into preventative measures that people could use besides a vaccine to help build up their immune system," the Cape Cod Times reported.
Peter Meier, chair of the Board of Selectmen, said Zuern cared deeply about others. "She definitely left her mark on the community," he added.
According to the report, Zuern and her mother contracted COVID-19 while returning home from a trip to South Dakota — a state where Republican-motivated policies have let the virus propagate with little control.

Obviously many of them are so bought in to the conspiracy theories that they will never wake up, but it’s possible some might. Someone might see that this is nonsense coming from crank sources and wake up, but only if the cranks are answered.
I don’t care what the cranks believe per se, but antivaxers kill innocent people by clouding their perceptions with declarations that most people won’t take the time to investigate. They convince others not to protect themselves and they spread the disease to people like that as well.
Those people are worth contending for, the ignorant ones who saw the antivaxers’ Facebook posts and later say “well I heard the vaccine was unsafe so I didn’t get it…” as they are being admitted to the hospital.

Yes, I Ivermectin is widely used to treat intestinal parasites in humans. In the proper dose under dr supervision. Too much will kill you, just like many medications.
People self dosing with medication intended for animals 10 times their size are ****ing retards.
anything is toxic if you take too much. Some lady died from too much water a while back trying to win an xbox. Obviously if you take too much it's bad, that's no secret so might want to look in the mirror with your dumbass comments.
Anti-vaxxer professional motorcyclist dies of Covid
2021-09-08 Valencia
By Majorca Daily Bulletin reporter
Jorge Lis, who was a runner-up in Spain's 125cc motorcycling championship in the 1990s and went on to become a motorcycle racing coach, has died of Covid. He was 46.
He passed away on Tuesday at the Hospital La Fe de Valencia, having been in intensive care for 45 days. Damage caused to his lungs by Covid proved too great.
His condition became public knowledge when his sister, Elena, wrote an article about his views on Covid. After refusing to be vaccinated and spreading conspiracy theories about the pandemic, he became infected. His condition gradually worsened, and this made him rethink his Covid denial.
In one of the last messages he sent his sister before being admitted to ICU, he admitted that he was "afraid". He had suddenly been given one of his greatest life lessons. "Spending a lot of time on Twitter, etc. radicalized me to the extreme. I wish I had been vaccinated."

Veronica Wolski, Woman Who QAnoners Demanded Hospital Treat COVID With Ivermectin, Dies
BY EWAN PALMER ON 9/13/21 AT 4:37 AM EDT
A woman who became the center of a harassment campaign against a Chicago hospital as QAnon supporters demanded they treat her COVID-19 diagnosis with ivermectin has died, according to reports.
Veronica Wolski, a popular QAnon advocate best known for hanging banners from a bridge in Chicago, died in the early hours of Monday morning after spending weeks in hospital with COVID-19.
Her death was announced on Telegram by conspiracy theorist Lin Wood, one of the biggest and most influential QAnon supporters. Wood previously urged his 814,000 Telegram followers to ring up the Amita Health Resurrection Medical Center and demand that Wolski be treated with ivermectin instead of approved and tested drugs or vaccines.
Tributes were also paid to Wolski on other QAnon telegram channels and Twitter following reports of her death.
In a statement to Newsweek, Olga Solares, spokeswoman for Amita Health Resurrection Medical Center, said: "We can confirm that this patient passed away early this morning. We will not be providing any additional comment about this patient or topic."
Michael Flynn and Lynn Wood have been organizing on social media to force Amita Resurrection Hospital to give ivermectin to their friend, Veronica Wolski. One Lin Wood follower posted today an idea of how to smuggle it in to her. pic.twitter.com/MdqNiD6vQg
In his post on Telegram, Wood claimed that Wolski had been murdered by the hospital for refusing to treat her COVID with ivermectin.
"I have just learned that Veronica Wolski saw the face of God this morning at 12:44 a.m.," Wood said.
"It is our responsibility to ensure that these medical murders stop NOW and the perpetrators be brought to justice.
"Veronica will be on her bridge in Heaven looking down on us. We must do our best to make sure Veronica did not leave this Earth in vain."
Just hours before reporting her death, Wood posted a video online where he called hospital staff and demanded that she be released from hospital, claiming the person on the call would be guilty of murder if she did not.
Wood also made a similar statement late on Sunday night, claiming he had spoken to Wolski's power of attorney and that Amita Resurrection Hospital and its medical providers would be "complicit in murder" if they do not immediately release Veronica to receive the medical treatment she is requesting.

Other popular QAnon supporters who encouraged their followers to harass the hospital staff into treating Wolski with ivermectin include Sidney Powell, who along with Wood attempting to claim the 2020 election was rigged with the widely dismissed "kraken" lawsuits, and former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
