A sobering, cautionary thread:
Last December, Tennessee conservative talk radio host Phil Valentine wrote a blog entry called “It’s Just Common Sense “Then, he wrote: “I’m not an anti-vaxxer. I’m just using common sense. What are my odds of getting COVID? They’re pretty low…”

“Last week, Mark Valentine, spoke at length on WWTN-FM about his brother’s condition and said his brother now regrets not being an advocate for vaccination,” reports CBS affiliate @NC5 newschannel5.com/news/conservat…
