Ted Nugent tests positive for covid-19 after calling pandemic a ‘scam’
Musician Ted Nugent has tested positive for coronavirus months after he said that the virus was “not a real pandemic”.
In his Christmas message, Nugent called the worldwide crisis a “scammy pandemic” and said that people who wore masks were “sheep”.
On Monday, Nugent revealed on Facebook Live that he had caught Covid-19, admitting that “everybody” told him that he shouldn’t announce his diagnosis.
“I have had flu symptoms for the last 10 days and I thought I was dying, just a clusterf***,” he said.
“Today is the 19th of April 2021 during clusterf*** pandemic... I was tested positive today. I got the Chinese s***.”
