Karma wins!

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Phil Valentine, a Nashville-based conservative radio
talk show host who had questioned whether it was necessary for all people
to get Covid-19 vaccines, died on Saturday, his employer, WWTN Radio,
announced on Twitter. Valentine was 61 years old.

"Please keep the Valentine family in your thoughts and prayers," the
station said in the tweet.

His death comes more than a month after the host first announced he had
been diagnosed with Covid-19. On his program, Valentine had repeatedly
downplayed the importance of getting a vaccine against the virus, saying
last December that he believed his personal odds of dying from Covid-19
were "probably way less than one percent."

But his message changed in late July when his family announced that
Valentine had been hospitalized in "very serious condition" and was
suffering from "Covid Pneumonia and the attendant side effects."

"Karma Wins!"

It's disappointing when someone celebrates another person passing because of the virus.... Regardless of their positions.

Not really celebrating his demise… just the irony of it is too good to leave unpublicised!
One less Trump supporter in the world...
The way the Trump states are going, Natural Selection will see 100% of the (remaining) US population vaccinated.

I think there was another far right radio commentator a month or two ago that suffered the same fate. He also had the same veiws.

You're still celebrating.

Ray, I'm sure there will be people in your close circle who are worried about being vaccinated, or worryingly, don't believe in it.
Will you be feeling the same joy if they pass?

I could care less if they don't want to get vaccinated but there's no need for the actions in the protesting in Melb & probably Sydney.
I'd prefer it if they put a tattoo on their forehead. That way we 'others' can avoid them like the plague & kick them out of the Dr's & hospitals when they get Covid.
What you think?

Received an email last week from my granddaughter stranded in the UK that I didn't want to get,she has Covid.She was booked on a flight back to Australia in two weeks,probably won't happen for a while.Just hope the Covid doesn't develope into a serious case.She does believe in Covid and the vaccines,she has tried hard to avoid it.

people that spout off saying there is no virus and that it is all a conspiracy, I do not feel sorry for them but I do feel for the majority of the worlds population that those non believers are putting at risk and also passing the virus onto innocent people , let alone their own families. It is a pity the guy died BUT his choice to put his life at risk and others he mingled with. Maybe he should of used his last days to go on radio and urged everyone to get the jab. No one that I know and hasn't been jabbed is not welcome in my house. Self preservation is my goal.
2foot6, sorry about your GD but she is young and strong and she will be ok and home soon. x

As Dot posted Peter.
Scary when it becomes one of the family.

My simple point is/was; regardless of some ones belief, their death shouldn't be treated with glee.
And, yes, there are idiots out there, but they'll have family and friends mourning too.
