Tucker Carlson loses one more viewer. Unclear if surviving family will drop watching too.

Family pleads for people to get vaccinated after father dies from COVID-19

A Snohomish man who planned to get the COVID-19 vaccine, but was hesitant, lost his life to the virus before he could get the shot and now his children are sharing his story.
-snip-

Katie said her dad planned to get vaccinated but believes he was hesitant, in part, from watching right-wing media reports.

"He'd watch YouTube videos of Tucker Carlson," said Katie. "We think he was a victim of misinformation."

Patrick was healthy with no underlying conditions. His family said they believe he caught the virus from an eastern Washington barber who went to work sick. - King5, Seattle, WA

Continued
Patrick, a Boeing designer of more than 20 years, was not an "anti-vaxxer," according to Katie, but was waiting until the Food and Drug Administration gave the vaccines full approval before initiating the process.

"Every little girl dreams about her dad walking her down the aisle," said Katie. "Now, I won’t get that. The Christmases, the grandchildren he won’t get to meet... it really hurts."

1. nope

They will find a way to blame Democrats. Look at the RWNJ that died of Covid and they are blaming the doctors because they wouldn't give ivermectin.

I say give them all the horse dewormer that they want.

2. I think the OP is saying the Carlson literally lost a viewer...

as in a person that used to view his content.

Doesn't sound like the family was into Carlson like the dad. If you read the article it will explain the context.

The "what if's" are kind of sad though. One was "what if he had been vaccinated one day earlier" the answer to that is, It likely would have made no difference. One vaccination one day prior to exposure is not enough to protect you from a virus. The science shows some protection between 10 days after the first dose, but not full immunity. What is considered, maximum immunity would be achieved after about 10 to 14 days after a second dose of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. Not sure about the Johnson-Johnson vaccine since it is a single dose.

Goes to show how little people are actually paying attention to the real science on the issue.

7. I feel so bad for his family

[Caliman73]

8. Yeah. Double loss.

Loss to right wing idiot propaganda. Then literal loss to a completely preventable illness because of said right wing idiocy.

I don't know how, but Right wing media must be stopped. It is destructive.

3. Nah, no judge overrules my Dr.

People have easy access to it. They can self-suicide. Which I guess is redundant.

5. #self-suicide going viral in 10...9...8...7...

I hope you secured the copyright.

P.S. are you related to Lake Louise? Asking for a friend.

6. No, but, I'm named after a Volcano.

9. Isn't "self-suicide" a redundant term?

I mean, who else initiates suicide other than "self?"

4. Republican (and Russian) propaganda kills Republican voters

Why do Republicans think this is a good thing? Really? I mean, I just don't get it.

10. Sorry, he was stupid. 180,000,000 (or more people) DIDN"T wait for full FDA approval.

And easily 99.9% of them are still alive and NOT watching Fucker Carlson...

From the story in the OP:

"But just days before the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine received federal approval, Patrick was diagnosed with COVID-19 and started deteriorating quickly"

Missed his chance by only what............... 8 months...

See ya!.
