Well, we know where 6 gets his news.
America has been 'Hannitized,' and the ignorance he spreads is deadly

But there is a political factor that’s increasing both the reach and the deadliness of the pandemic. Because studies are now showing how right-wing media, including Fox News, has deliberately spread confusion, conflicting information, and outright lies about the pandemic. These sources downplayed the risk, spread a false sense of security, and encouraged viewers to disregard their personal safety even as hospitals—and morgues—were filling. The most astounding result: Both infection rates and mortality can be mapped to places where Sean Hannity is most popular.
Hannity has long been Donald Trump’s most reliable purveyor of unreliable information, and on the COVID-19 crisis Hannity has worked overtime. In the early days of the crisis, Hannity could be counted on to declare it was a hoax. When Trump was pushing hydroxychloroquine, Hannity was all over it as a miracle drug. When Trump started pushing to reopen, Hannity got out the crow bars to complain that the economy was more important than grandma. So it’s no surprise that Hannity viewers are the most confused about the nature of the pandemic—and more likely to die as a result.

Stupid people don't know they're stupid, and they certainly don't realize how obvious it is to others.

There were 77,255 new cases reported Thursday, topping the previous high of 67,791 two days ago. Holy shit Trump fucked this up.

navirus-misinformation-253-times-just-five-days
Fox News repeated coronavirus misinformation 253 times in its weekday coverage from July 6 through 10, including claims that undermined scientific research about the pandemic, eroded trust in public health experts and policy recommendations, called for reopening schools and businesses without regard to public health precautions, and politicized the country’s response to the virus.

Quote:Imperial College of London worst-case simulation came up with 2.2 million deaths by simply assuming that 81% of the population gets infected – 268 million people – and that 0.9% of them die. It did not assume health systems would have to be overwhelmed to result in so many deaths, though it did make that prediction. Neither the high infection rate nor the high fatality rate holds up under scrutiny.

The worst-case Imperial College estimate of 2.2 million deaths if everyone does “nothing” did not simply mean no government lockdowns. It meant nobody avoids crowded elevators, or wears face masks, washes their hands more often, or buys gloves or hand sanitizer. Everyone does literally nothing to avoid danger.

2.2 million dead is a small number in big country. For example, Gary Earl Johnson, Libertarian, got 4,489,341 votes in 2016. He literally had no chance of winning, but votes for him could have swung the election either way.

I've always said that Hannity and Limbaugh are two of the biggest pieces of shit in America.
Take that shit to JSF, because once again you don't know what you're talking about.
