On March 13, Spradlin shared a misleading meme that compared coronavirus deaths to swine flu deaths and suggested the media is using the pandemic to hurt Trump. In the comments, Spradlin acknowledged that the outbreak is a “real issue,” but added that he believes “the media is pumping out fear and doing more harm than good”
“It will come and it will go,” he wrote.
That same day, he shared a post from another pastor that told the story of a missionary in South Africa who “protected” himself from the bubonic plague with the “Spirit of God.”
“As long as I walk in the light of that law [of the Spirit of life], no germ will attach itself to me,” read a quote from the post.

I get that some unfortunate people are mentally unbalanced and are in desperate need of treatment, but can't we just beat this one with sticks?

Soap is the key to staying safe.
Don't use it.

How do English people feel about using soap every single bloody day?

Yeah, I know what you mean!

They feel better about it than the French, I’m sure.
