GOP Lawmaker Banned from Airline Has Covid-19

Alaska state Sen. Lora Reinbold (R), who was banned from flying on Alaska Airlines for refusing to wear a mask, and therefore unable to travel to and from the state capital, has now tested positive for the coronavirus, the Washington Post reports.

Said Reinbold in a Facebook post: “It’s my turn to battle Covid head on… game on! Who do you think is going to win? When I defeat it, I will tell you my recipe.”

Good thing she was banned from flying. Imagine how many other people she would’ve infected by now. So sick of these assholes!

Wonder how much of our precious resources in the medical field will go to her recovery (personnel, time, machines, room and care) will be wasted on her that could have been spared with a simple vaccination.

Wish she could be sued for all that waste and the waste caused to others she infected.

Why doesn't she patent it and sell it the way a true capitalist would?

1. Vaccine.
2. Mask.
3. Social Distance.
4. Avoid assholes who won’t get vaccinated.
