As lockdown continues to have a huge impact on peoples’ lives across the world, tensions are rising in the USA, with protests starting to form against statewide lockdown orders.

Trump has appeared to encourage protestors in Virginia, Michigan and Minnesota who have gathered to protest against stay-at-home orders which are designed to stop the spread of Covid-19.

But a protester in Huntington Beach in California seems to have missed the point slightly.
A man was photographed protesting the lockdown with a sign that reas: “COVID-19 IS A LIE”.

So far, so strange.

Yet people couldn’t help but notice that he was dressed in head-to-toe protective gear.
A slightly strange choice of outfit for someone who apparently believes that Covid-19 is a lie, right? You really couldn’t make it up.


It’s obviously distressing that people believe this deadly pandemic is a hoax. But it’s hardly surprising seeing as Trump has frequently fanned the flames of conspiracy theories to his own benefit. Many of the supporters photographed over the weekend made clear they were Trump supporters, so his words clearly hold a lot of sway with them.

To add another layer of ridiculousness to this protester’s getup, the rest of the text on his sign (excluding the letters in bold capitals) is so small that you’d need to be pretty close to him to read it.


Obviously lots of people on social media saw the funny side in a man wearing head-to-toe protective gear brandishing this sign.
There were tweets, lots of tweets…

That is the effect of liberal democracy. China was able to curtail the disease because its government had absolute powers and it brutally enforced a two-month lockdown on Wuhan province. America and other Western countries don't have that luxury. They have to listen to the complaints of the masses and modify the lockdown to enable businesses reopen gradually. This is what will happen in Nigeria soon if the government continues to dish out lockdown instructions in batches like we re in a boarding school. So come Monday when the second 14-day lockdown will expire, Buhari must show leadership by allowing factories, banks, senior civil servants resume. That way, tension will be calmed.

No wonder the pandemic keep spreading in US.

Trump called it Chinese Virus at first.

It is just sad that we have lots of covidiots all over the world despite the overwhelming evidence of the seriousness of the virus. Thousands are dying daily all over that world and some idiots are still saying the virus is fake.
