If the words of that “doctor” who “just left the ER” and has a message about getting “crushed” by the new COVID Delta variant to call for a new “national lockdown” looks familiar it’s because you probably have seen it before.
It’s an apparent astroturfed message campaign to scare people into getting a COVID vaccine.
It’s unclear who is behind the effort, but what is clear is they have many people and perhaps even bots willing and able to cut and paste the message to issue the fearful message because we’re “getting crushed” by the COVID Delta variant, don’t you know?
Our colleagues at Twitchy report that a similar effort started on Facebook.
If it was as serious as they claim, we would have actual reports that would reflect the seriousness. Instead, we have astro-turfed panic pornography on both Twitter and Facebook. Don't fall for the scam.
