Ted Nugent has been ignoring the COVID effect for almost a year now.
Now Ted Nugent has walked back his comment that COVID-19 is “not a real pandemic” — days after testing positive for the novel coronavirus.
Nugent acknowledged his apparent change of mind while being interviewed by Florida’s ABC7 earlier this week.
He said:
“There’s been worse conditions and health problems in the past in this country and around the world where nobody ever shut down mom-and-pop diners and shut down entire economic societies in the United States of America.”
He added:
“That’s what I believe, and I will continue to believe that that’s a hoax. But the pandemic is real, and the people that are sick are real.”
