Sad article about the toll conspiracy theorists are taking on one hero Doctor
This is the great crisis of our time......... unless we start pressuring social media companies to clean up their act, this brainwashing that has taken over a large percent of our population will just go on and on long after drumpf and covid are gone......
1/3 of our country believes this shit to varying degrees.......

At the end of another long shift treating coronavirus patients, Dr. Hadi Halazun opened his Facebook page to find a man insisting to him that "no one's dying" and that the coronavirus is "fake news" drummed up by the news media.
Hadi tried to engage and explain his firsthand experience with the virus. In reply, another user insinuated that he wasn't a real doctor, saying pictures from his profile showing him at concerts and music festivals proved it.
"I told them: 'I am a real doctor. There are 200 people in my hospital's ICU,'" said Halazun, a cardiologist in New York. "And they said, 'Give me your credentials.' I engaged with them, and they kicked me off their wall."
"I left work and I felt so deflated. I let it get to me."
