"We thought the government was using it to distract us," says Brian Lee Hitchens, "or it was to do with 5G. So we didn't follow the rules or seek help sooner."
Brian, 46, is talking by phone from his hospital bed in Florida. His wife is critically ill - sedated, on a ventilator in an adjacent ward.
"The battle that they've been having is with her lungs," he says, voice wobbling. "They're inflamed. Her body just is not responding."
After reading online conspiracy theories, they thought the disease was a hoax - or, at the very least, no worse than flu. But then in early May, the couple caught Covid-19.
"And now I realise that coronavirus is definitely not fake," he says, running out of breath. "It's out there and it's spreading."

Both are probably obese McDonald's eating smokers. He earth will be a little more healthy without these two consumers. And this is why we need to end lockdown. To thin the herd

Svet grew up in one of those hippy cults that refers to Earth as "Mother Earth". After he left that life and filled the religious void with Nigel Farage, he decided that that form of address was "too cucked" and switched to He Earth.

Lad, be honest with us, did your cargo short friends peer pressure you into buying them?
It is okay to not wear cargo shorts.
