A right-wing radio host in Tennessee, who had questioned the need for
Covid-19 vaccines while promoting 'alternatives,' is 'fighting for his
life' against the virus in a critical care unit.
Phil Valentine, who
hosts a show on SuperTalk 99.7 WTN in Nashville, is battling 'Covid
pneumonia and the attendant side effects,' his brother, Mark, said in a
statement Thursday.
'Please continue to pray for his recovery and PLEASE
GO GET VACCINATED!' Mark Valentine implored.
Phil Valentine, 61,
appeared to be in high spirits July 12 when he told his followers in a
Facebook post that he had the coronavirus. 'Unfortunately for the haters
out there, it looks like I'm going to make it,' he joked.
He went back
on air two days later according to his Facebook profile, striking a more
grateful tone but still promoting 'alternatives.'
'Thanks for all the
prayers and well-wishes,' he said. 'The good news is there are some very
effective alternatives to the vaccine. 'If you're high risk of dying
from COVID I still strongly suggest you consider the vaccine, but this
it totally your choice,' he said in a post. 'Just make sure you're
prepared if you decide against the vaccine.'
Things took a turn for the
worse since then.

My wife posted this on FB this morning after seeing the alarming surge of the COVID-19 Variants patients posted on the county health department website.
Our County Health Department did an outstanding job setting up vaccination sites. Trey and I were vaccinated as soon as possible and wore our masks daily. We don't care if you don't believe in vaccinations or not and we are not trying to force our opinion on you. We ask that you consider it.

However, Trey and I want to know how can the CDC can address the urgency of a vaccine while our country permits large numbers of Illegal Aliens to cross our borders that are carrying the Covid-19.
