https://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/failed-congressional-candidate-deanna-lorraines-new-crusade-coronavirus-conspiracy-theories/
DeAnna Lorraine, a right-wing activist who unsuccessfully ran in the Mar. 3 California primary to challenge House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, is now pushing new conspiracy theories about COVID-19, promoting the hashtags #coronavirustruth and #filmyourhospital.
On Sunday, Lorraine filmed outside two hospitals in Los Angeles and found them quietwhich she took as a sign that the hospitals and mainstream media are engaged in a hoax, rather than a simpler alternative explanation, which is that hospitals arent allowing any visitors to try to protect their patients and prevent further spread of the virus.
Lets get #FilmYourHospital trending, Lorraine tweeted Sunday afternoon. As of early Monday morning, that message had been retweeted more than 15,000 times and people were taking her up on the challenge, filming quiet hospital parking lots as if they were revealing yet another mainstream media plot. The hashtag has also attracted outrage from medical professionals and others who are warning that this kind of disinformation is threatening peoples lives.
Lorraine was back at it on Monday morning, tweeting messages like Im sure we would all like the actual #Coronavirustruth and How many people do you personally know with #COVID19. She asserted that, The FDA has never been interested in cures or safety.

If indeed he doesn't take any responsibility, then why does it matter what Dr. Fauci says?
