Hunter Pepper, who became the youngest councilmember to be ever elected in the Decatur City, Alabama, said he is now suffering from COVID-19 pneumonia.
“Confirming last night after a ‘CT-Scan’ I am now shown to have ‘Covid Pneumonia’ which is absolutely terrible,” Pepper said Thursday on Facebook, which he took down the next day.
Pepper’s post came just a day after he announced he was diagnosed with COVID-19. He had previously been outspoken in his opposition to mask mandates.
“Unfortunately, this morning I have confirmed two positive test for COVID-19,” Pepper wrote on Facebook Wednesday, just a day before he was diagnosed with COVID pneumonia. “Everything in me wants to tell myself it is something different but every way I look it’s “Covid this, Covid that” and it has terrified me and my family.”
