The great MLB, Tommy John, minimizes the threat of COVID-19, even if he fights the virus in the hospital. And if you think it’s crazy, wait until you see his son.
John’s eldest son, Tommy John III, has come up with bizarre theories about the virus since it began, claiming it doesn’t exist and urging people to stop wearing masks. In response to the Post story about his father, John III returned to it on Wednesday, launching another round of dangerous misinformation on Instagram.
“I have had a lot of people tell me in my fight for the health and medical freedom of the globe in the last 10 months of a pandemic charade that I would ‘sing a different song’ if it affected my family or someone. close to me, ”he told his more than 71,000 Instagram fans, along with a screenshot of the Post story. “This is my father I’m talking about, but let’s see … how I should put this …. IT’S NOT A PANDEMIC.
“There is no virus that causes a new disease called CVD. THERE IS NO TEST TO DETECT A VIRUS OR AN INFECTION. MASKS ARE UNNECESSARY AND A SIGN OF OBEDIENCE AND CONFORMITY AND ARE EXTREMELY HEALTHY, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. STOP TESTING. NO LONGER WEAR A MASK. OH …. AND YOU CAN ALL DIB ON MY VXXXN BECAUSE HE’S NOT A VXXXN ANYWAY. “
The rest of his page is full of similar disassembled information and conspiracy theories. His previous post has a picture of the words “what virus?” Deliberate. Made by man. “
His page is also full of links to websites fooled by viruses, as well as links to his podcast.
John III, who says “Dr. Tommy John ”on Instagram, is a chiropractor in San Diego and did not go to medical school. According to his website, he holds a master’s degree in health sciences and exercise from Furman University and a doctorate in chiropractic from Life University, which his website notes is a “4-year program.” .
His father, who was the first MLB pitcher to return to baseball after reconstructive elbow surgery, now known as “Tommy John Surgery,” slightly turned his frustrated comments to The Daily Beast, where he denied the severity of the virus.
“I am not a denier. I had him, baby, “he said in a telephone interview with the Associated Press, after previously accusing a reporter of” making a mountain out of a mill “when discussing details about his diagnosis.
However, clearly, young John has no interest in going back to any of his bizarre claims, seeing that he has built a reputation on denying the very existence of the virus.
