“I fought hard, dodged COVID for 2 years in an effort to protect my baby boy. I’m vaccinated, I was tested several times a week, tested those who visited. I lost the fight and was positive yesterday. By God’s grace Ace, my win is negative. Wealth is health. Stay safe.”
Many of her followers offered support, but others used it as an opportunity to share their views on COVID being very mild. Some of them compared the COVID to the common cold. MalikaTweeted:
“Some real ignorant folks out there. Why am I worried about a ‘cold’?, cus many people have died from the virus including my loved ones. You spreaders keep your narrow perspective to yourself.”
Many followers took offense to both tweets. One user wrote:
“You spreaders? Listen here! You can spread it, whether you’re vaxxed and unvaxxed. Edicate your narrow mind.”
“You sow the seeds of hate with your every ignorant breath. Go sell crazy someplace else, Twitter is all stocked up.”
“Spreaders? What do you mean by people you were hanging around with? Or the lack of precautions you and others took? As I do hope you feel better but people aren’t ignorant for calling it a cold because that’s exactly what it says it causes in the medical encyclopedia. The survival rate was 99% to begin with.”
“Nah, you want to keep spewing ignorance, we’re going to call you out.”
“I’ve got it atm it’s nothing like the first version. I’m just mostly coughing and chest feels tight. It will keep mutating and get milder and milder.”
“So stop saying ‘you lost the fight’ ESPECIALLY if you’ve lost loved ones… shoose your words wisely.”
“Weak unhealthy people have died. Is that going keep you in fear and paranoia over a virus that is similar to the flu? Once the media stops scaring the shit out of you, you’ll figure yourself out and realize it wasn’t that bad.”
“you can still spread it if your vaccinated dummy.”
“This is so f****n dramatic ‘I lost the fight’ it’s a virus. People still don’t know how this works?? How to build immunity!!”
“Sis acts like she is fighting cancer. We ALL been dealing w covid for two years.”
