Ha..that church he is speaking to lied about its "99% virus removal" system

[dixiegrrrrl]

Sunday to the church’s Facebook page, senior pastor Luke Barnett claimed that the church had installed air purifiers that “kill 99.9 percent of COVID in 10 minutes.” Standing shoulder to shoulder with the church’s chief operations officer, Brendon Zastrow, Barnett explains that the church contracted with a local company called CleanAir EXP to install the purifiers. “When you come into our auditorium, 99 percent of COVID is gone, killed—if it was there in the first place,” Barnett says in the clip. “You can know when you come here you’ll be safe and protected. Thank God for great technology and thank God for being proactive.” Neither man wears a mask as they talk.

The video was later removed from the church’s Facebook page. “We understand there is recent confusion around the claims made by one of our customers around our laboratory testing,” the CEO of CleanAir EXP, Tim Bender, said in an email statement. “Our patented technology leads to a 99.9% elimination of airborne coronavirus surrogates. We do not, however, eliminate COVID-19 at this time.” [/divhttps://slate.com/human-interest/2020/06/dream-city-church-phoenix-trump-young-americans-air-purifiers-covid.html

2. Cue the trombone ...

[Freethinker65]

3. Ignorance kills

I assume Arizona does not believe in contact tracing.

[Laffy Kat]

4. That never made sense in the first place.

Idiots. They were utilizing industrial fans and humidifiers, so if anything, they spread it further.

[List left]

5. But they brought in mobile virus scrubbers..

They brought in a whole host of portable - Layered Undulating Nano Glomming Scrubbers. These mobile virus traps will capture and remove the virus to other locations.

6. No church should need a fucking COO/Chief Operations Office.

15. I don't think an actual Christian Church would have a Trump rally.

Collecting tithes and passing a plate does not make it a Church.

[Nevilledog]

16. Agreed.

7. It's okay. Dog will protect them, I'm sure.

[CentralMass]

8. Oops.

[cyclonefence]

9. "thank God for being proactive." nt

[diva77]

10. I wonder if anybody had to sign a waiver to attend the rally there

[Mariana]

11. What is this? A preacher lied?

I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.

Churches are pestholes. That is all.

[stopbush]

12. Lying for Jeebuz is a time-honored tradition in the Xian church.

This was just another case of that.

[StarryNite]

13. I don't see the humor.

I live here in the valley, it's not funny. How many people are going to be infected because of the idiots who attended that shit show? How many will become really sick? How many will die?

14. The irony is that conman Trump has been lied to

by a dishonest preacher of a mega-church.I

The fact so many people showed, maskless, to a virus hotspot
is tragic.

17. The dummies were also outside before the rally...

... with a misting fan blowing across them. Almost no masks among them at that time either.
