Damn, John Prine has this hideous virus. Just Damn.
We both share the same birthday, 10/10, though he has a few years on me.
Has anyone heard of other musicians with it?
Damn.  

Also passed from the virus

While it's truly sad to hear of these losses, it's more than likely that none of these people have actually died from CV-19, but from pre-existing health issues and complications.  Then on top of it "may" or "may not" have even tested positive for the virus in the first place as the original tests themselves were actually tainted, defective and in some cases may have actually given the CV-19 virus to people.

The way these hospitals are being ran is that every death ~ no matter if it was from cardio pulmonary disease, cardiac arrest, cancer, a motorcycle crash, falling off a building, or whatever ~ as long as they tested positive for CV-19 it is considered a CV-19 death.  That's if they really even tested positive in the first place as hospitals have already been caught fudging the numbers.  I'm hopeful that everyone at this point has heard of the Tanzanian President John Magufuli sending test samples in from a pawpaw fruit, a goat and a sheep and they all came back positive for CV-19.

If you or any of your loved ones actually do test positive for it ... get on the HCQ Z-Pak protocol right away, there is a 99% chance of curing it (within 3 hours in some instances) if implemented immediately and even at later stages you still have a 62% of recovering from it (which is better than nothing).  Do not listen to the media, they are complicit in the deaths of countless people for lying about the effectiveness of the HCQ protocol (if nothing more than for political reasons).

Snopes is owned and operated by a lying liberal couple somewhere around the San Fernando Valley and are associated with The Democratic Alliance aka Soros. They have been caught lying and covering for Obama for years ~ I trust the National Enquirer to be more factual than that trash heep of a website. Who fact checks these fact checkers?

As far as front line doctors are concerned, there was a summit in DC just last week where several doctors gave a press conference and said HCQ Z-Pak is definitely effective. After the conference the video was posted online and was immediately taken down and banned from all social media platforms within a few hours of it being posted and then they even suspended people's twitter and Facebook accounts who posted it... even the group of doctors' own web hosting service closed their personal website.  That should tell you something right there ~ they don't want you to know there is a treatment that works.

Even Fauci (aka Dr. Swamp Rat) knew it was effective back in 2005.  Said Dr. Fauci’s National Institute of Health in 2005, “concentrations of 10 μM completely abolished SARS-CoV infection.” Fauci’s researchers add, “chloroquine can effectively reduce the establishment of infection and spread of SARS-CoV.”

If he already knew it worked, why do you think this swamp rat would keep it from the American people?

Not meant to slam you personally Lon.  I  may reply with some more thoughts as to why I think Snopes is not on the up and up and why I think Fauci is a biased fake.
