Representative Barry Moore announced Friday that he and his wife have tested positive for COVID-19—and then he continued to criticize mask mandates and advocate for the freedom to choose.
The freshman congressman also falsely claimed that vaccines were"untested," saying that we"don't know a lot about them yet." Alabama Health Officer Dr. Scott Harris said Friday that the state has"not had a particularly good week," as hospitalizations continued to exceed the health care system's capacity. In response, the state has requested resources from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to help its medical staff.
