Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene railed against coronavirus safety measures on Saturday and received backlash after comparing the spread of the infectious disease to cancer.
In a message on Twitter, the Georgia Republican wrote that the U.S. has never "shut down" and schools were not closed due to cancer-related deaths.
(Even if her comparison between an infectious disease and cancer is ridiculous, even if it were an appropriate comparison she would still wrong. There have been at least two cases where schools built on top of toxic waste dumps were closed due to cancer clusters in children.)
Also her Mom did too, obviously.....
Maybe they do not know this in Georgia. Cancer is not normally spread by bring close to someone who has it. Someone please tell this to MTG.
Ummmm, why would you do that?
