Mask-skeptic pastor gets Covid-19 and infects other church staff
Source: CNN
Paul Van Noy, senior pastor at Candlelight Church in Coeur d'Alene, has spent two weeks in the hospital with a Covid-19 diagnosis, ministry coordinator Eric Reade confirmed to CNN. Five other church staff were infected with coronavirus, too, but they've all recovered, he said.
In a comment shared through Candlelight Church, Van Noy said he'll soon move out of the ICU into another room in the hospital and then recover at home.
"At present I feel OK but still need quite a bit of oxygen support -- especially if and when I try to get up out of the bed," he said in a statement through the church.
His wife also contracted Covid-19 but wasn't hospitalized, according to the church. The couple are two of over 3,050 cases in the Northwest Idaho area, local health data shows.

(3,512 posts)Assuming womp womp is equal to 2Xwomp them for any womp > 1.41421356 (approximately), then womp to the power of womp will be greater then womp womp.
So, where womp = 0, womp to the power of womp also = 0, which I assume is how many fucks you have to spare...

It does sound like it's going to be a while before the preacher can wheeze out any hellfire and damnation.
Covid is no joke. Even my mild case of "presumptive" wasn't, it took forever go get rid of the cough.

More to the point, is he going to require mask wearing at services now? If not, he's an immoral ignoramus who really, really doesn't deserve medical care.

Kind of like how the christoliban says often

Anyway, after they dragged Van Noy off to the ICU, a 24-hour-a-day vigil sprung up outside the hospital. No one wore a mask or socially distanced.

Pastor Van Noy trying to find the right words to explain herd mentality.

(14,144 posts)The ones that survived that is. No admission they were wrong. No apology to those that were infected because of their irresponsible attitude.
Of course we know why. Because then they'd have to admit that they heard God wrong that it was all harmless. That they were rather, if they stuck by the themes of their religion, deceived by the Devil. And that Devil worked though Trump. And theyve already gone all in on their King Percy, their God anointed leader that will usher in a new Christian age where.....gall dang it, no one will make fun of us no more!

(53,932 posts)Some experience intense fatigue after being released from the hospital. This is often due to undetected heart muscle damage which is not always checked for, and thus remains undetected. Maybe this jerk will try to over-extend himself too early, and then grace some other plane of existence with his august presence.
