Yet another prominent evangelical Christian who proselytized against vaccines has died after being hospitalized with COVID.

Marcus Lamb, founder and CEO of Daystar Television, was 64.

“This morning at 4 a.m. the president and founder of Daystar and the love of my life went to be with Jesus,” said his wife, Joni, during a Tuesday morning broadcast, reported Religion News Service. “I wanted you to hear from me that he’s with the Lord.”

She also said that Lamb had diabetes and went to the hospital after his oxygen levels dropped, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported.

The network he founded also announced his death.

“It’s with a heavy heart we announce that Marcus Lamb, president and founder of Daystar Television Network, went home to be with the Lord this morning,” the network said on Twitter. “The family asks that their privacy be respected as they grieve this difficult loss. Please continue to lift them up in prayer.”

I believe they do get some anti-body protection from monoclonal, but it is not as effective as people who survive Covid without monoclonal. Doesn’t last as long either.

God’s will. Even though Lamb and some of my friends’ spouses died from the Coof, I STILL won’t take the devil’s brew they call a vaccine.

Do you even have a clue who Marcus Lamb is and what he believes about covid? He has made his views crystal clear countless times and regularly has his “experts” on. His medical advisors are all antivax. He was sick before he finally had to go to the very place he said not to...the hospital. He and his wife have been taking both ivernectin and HCL for a year as a prophylactic. He made his choice and died, so be it. I support his right to do so. I just hope he didn't cause someone else’s demise along the way.

The providers once he was admitted? More than likely. The providers prior to admittance? Nope. I assume you do not watch Daystar.

I don’t care what he believed.

I care whether or not he received decent medical care.

If he didn’t, I hope his family raises holy Hell.

[devane617]

Holy smokes, after reading through the comments I had no idea we had so many misinformed crazies here.

I’m not geneticly related to my father.

Or my mom.

And I don’t give the fbi my DNA info

Feel free to go to Daystar Facebook. They have downloaded the link to yesterday's broadcast and watch for yourself. I have to give props to his wife for being honest about how he died. As for the care he received at the hospital, Joni, his wife, has been calling into the program for weeks now giving updates from his hospital room. She called his caregivers at the hospital “angels” and praised the wonderful treatment he has been receiving. Not sure there is a lawyer that would touch this one.

From his picture, he looked thin. One could reasonably assume that he was a type 1 diabetic (no details in the article). Any prolonged fever can cause a type-1 diabetic to go into ketoacidosis, which can be fatal. Most hospitals don’t know how to treat type-1 patients. I’m type 1 myself, and I was once told by a nurse to avoid going to the local ER for any fever related illness, because I might not make it out alive.

They did say that he died from the results of Covid. The link to yesterdays broadcast is on Daystar Facebook. They speak openly about it. She has been calling into their live broadcast from his hospital room for 2 weeks with daily updates. Never hid the fact that he had Covid. She had it first and recovered.

“It wasn’t my time, and now I used the time to rededicate myself to losing weight and cutting out carbs, and fasting 18 hours a day. Doctors took me off of insulin, and my blood pressure is down..plus lost 38 lbs...”

Good for you. God bless you.

[BlackFemaleArmyColonel]

I agree.

[BlackFemaleArmyColonel]

Be nice. :)

[BlackFemaleArmyColonel]

Exactly.

[I want to know]

I saw the thread you posted today. Interesting stats. And like you, I support freedom of choice concerning what is in one’s best interest to be vaccinated or not be vaccinated.

Misinformed? Or confused? I think the comments here are indicative of the confusion created by so-called political officials who think they are gods and are issuing medical dictates, backed by political officials who are bought, bribed, black-mailed, threatened, or otherwise controlled. The medical community is almost an aside.

[devane617]

GOOD GRIEF!!! Let the politics go! Go see your family doctor and ask.them for the truth then act.

[BipolarBob]

I was being facetious.

[Tommy Revolts]

Not kidding, your brother’s immune system will be able to fight off the strain of flu virus that made him sick the first time.

From your tagline to the words you use in your posts, you sound like a pervert. You are not safe. Go away.
