The megachurch hosting President Donald Trump’s rally in Phoenix Arizona, have released a video claiming it had installed technology that killed “99.9 percent of COVID within 10 minutes”.
Dream City Church in Phoenix – where Mr. Trump will hold his rally 23 June – posted a video to its Facebook page on Monday in which pastor Luke Barnett and chief operations officer Brendon Zastrow claimed they have installed technology that kills the coronavirus in under ten minutes and that prospective attendees will be safe. “Yeah, we’ve installed clean air EXP. We have a local Arizona company – it was technology developed by some members of our church, and we’ve installed these units, and it kills 99.9 percent of COVID within 10 minutes,” Mr. Zastrow said in the video.
The church leaders claimed that the technology works through ionization. “So when you come into our auditorium, 99 percent of COVID is gone – killed,” Mr. Barnett claimed. “If it was there in the first place. So you can know when you come here you’ll be safe and protected.” The church did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Even if the purification system can deliver on the hefty claims, it would only be clearing the church auditorium of the virus prior to the event. It would not stop inter-person transmission of the virus should someone carrying the coronavirus attend. (Graig Graziosi/Independent)
Cases of COVID-19 have been on the increase in Arizona. The Governor and Mayor have mandated masks to be worn in public spaces. This is a Young Republican Rally, and watching all the YOUNG REPUBLICANS, the majority without face masks, hugging, clustering, and in a party mood, sans a mask, has to make any normal person wonder the following: are YOUNG REPUBLICANS as repugnant and repulsive as say OLDER REPUBLICANS? One White girl all dressed in her Red MAGA T-Shirt when approached by a reporter as to why no mask, responded, with that “fuck you asshole grin, of a privileged ignorant, uninformed lack of nurturing brat, “I am holding my breath!” Cool, huh, miracle upon miracle one can hold her breath while talking, and one can hold her breath as Trump speaks however long, depending on the rousing chorus of we love you from this suicidal crowd! And oh yeah, out of curiosity, to my Christian friends, what exactly is about Mega Church Pastors and their staff, that make them think Jesus, has no worries as to the health and welfare of their congregants. I mean a church is to be a house for God, and if it is a Christian church that God IS Jesus…so are we to assume COVID is cool with Christ?
