https://www.thedailybeast.com/fred-lowry-volusia-county-councilman-hospitalized-with-covid-19?fbclid=IwAR34fnZ_n42lG8Qc-LfYYRnTwB1Qx_IWITOQOnoQURz_LM_vwmmWVARBDRIFred Lowry, a councilman for Floridas Volusia County and a loud COVID-19 denier, is in the hospital with a severe case of COVID-19, according to the County Chair Jeff Brower. He is in the hospital wrestling with COVID-19. Its been about three weeks now, Brower said on Tuesday as Lowry, 66, missed a county council meeting for the second time.
Lowry, a Republican halfway through his second term on the Volusia County Council, spread COVID-19 disinformation and conspiracy theories, going so far as to say the pandemic was a hoax. We were lied to, he said in a sermon at Dentons Lakes Baptist Church. Lowry often criticized Dr. Anthony Fauci, whom he nicknamed Dr. Falsey, and insisted the top health official was a liar and pervert. Other conspiracies Lowry promoted had to do with media coverage of hydroxychloroquine and the Wuhan lab-leak theory.

The world WILL be a better place without him. Save the hospital the effort, and just end his existence.

Too bad he likely took out someone trying to do the right things to protect their loved ones.

Lowry, who also a pastor, was said to have been sick for a couple weeks before being brought to an emergency room to be treated for double pneumonia. Brower said a battle with pneumonia a couple years ago left Lowrys lungs damaged.
-----------------
Lowry referred to the nations head immunologist, Dr. Anthony Fauci, as Dr. Falsey, and allegedly referred to the 80-year-old director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases as a liar and a sexual deviant. He also used his pulpit to share misinformation about climate science and pushed the absurd QAnon theory that powerful liberals drink the blood of babies.
This is supposed to be rampant, I hear in Hollywood, and among the elite, Lowry said. I dont know if its true, but where theres smoke...
