Richard Rose, a 37-year-old man from Port Clinton, Ohio, recently died from coronavirus after slamming "hype" about the pandemic on Facebook.

Rose's family told Cleveland CBS affiliate 19 News the US Army veteran died at home on July 3, just three days after testing positive for COVID-19.

Rose's death has attracted attention online due to his public Facebook posts, in which he voiced support for President Donald Trump, criticized Black Lives Matter protesters, made jokes about rape, and accused Democrats of spreading false information about the pandemic in order to "rig the elections in their favor."

A tweet compiling a slideshow of Rose's posts, asking people to "watch how this unfolds," has garnered nearly 150,000 likes.

I wonder why so quickly. Guess we'll never know.
