Texas Republican leader who was hospitalized with COVID-19 died Wednesday, just days after he shared a post on social media questioning the effectiveness of the coronavirus vaccine.

The Galveston County Republican Party said in a Facebook post Wednesday morning that Scott Apley, a member of the State Republican Executive Committee and Dickinson City Council, had died.
While the party did not specify the cause of death, a GoFundMe page that had been set up for Apley and his family said he was admitted to a hospital Sunday with “pneumonia-like symptoms and tested positive for COVID.”



As of Thursday morning, the GoFundMe page had raised more than $30,000.
Apley, 45, is survived by his wife, Melissa, who according to the fundraising page has also tested positive for the coronavirus but has not been hospitalized, and their infant son.
The county Republican party said in its Facebook post that Apley’s death was “a tragedy,” and called on supporters to “please pray for Melissa and Reid and their family.”
“God remains in control although this is yet another tough one to swallow,” the organization added.
Apley, who was elected to the Dickinson City Council in November after a failed 2019 bid, had shared a post on Facebook, just two days before he was hospitalized, that appeared to question the credibility and effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccine.
“In 6 months, we’ve gone from the vax ending the pandemic—to you can still get covid even if vaxxed—to you can pass covid onto others even if vaxxed,” the post read in part.



Apley had also previously vocalized his opposition to vaccinations and mask mandates, and in May shared a flyer for a mask burning event.
In April, the Republican leader commented on a Twitter post from public health expert Leana Wen, who shared findings from a trial indicating that the COVID-19 vaccine developed by Pfizer and BioNTech remains effective against the virus for at least six months after the second dose.
Apley replied to the tweet by writing, “You are an absolute enemy of a free people,” and “#ShoveTheCarrotWhereTheSunDontShine.”

Texas Republican Party Chairman Matt Rinaldi said in a statement Wednesday that the state party was “incredibly saddened” by Apley's death.

• Massachusetts to require COVID-19 vaccine for all nursing home staff
• Only one Western European country has a vaccination rate lower than...

“Please join me in lifting the Apley family up in prayer,” he said. “We will miss Scott deeply but find comfort knowing he is at peace in the arms of our Savior.”
Apley's death comes as both Democratic and Republican elected officials are ramping up calls for Americans to get vaccinated as the highly transmissible delta variant spreads across the U.S., particularly among individuals who are unvaccinated.
According to estimates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released Wednesday, the delta variant now accounts for about 93 percent of infections in the U.S.

You could edit all the useless crap out before you post.

Dying of pneumonia (or Covid) doesn't say anything about whether the Covid vaccines are safe or effective.

The award for the most anti-vaccine state in the country goes to Oregon. This is not a surprise; the citizens of Portland are also afraid of fluoride. Thus, 4 of the 5 most anti-vaccine states are solid blue. (If Illinois is included, 5 of the 6 most anti-vaccine states are solid blue.) Including Illinois, 8 of the 12 most anti-vaccine states voted for Obama.

If cubia had a shred of decency, he would delete this thread.

Yea, right!!! Funny how the Cana knows so much.

First number I heard was 200.... and the next 750.

Hell, I don't know and neither do you.

The hypocrisy of this is what is humorous and says loads about this ridiculous thread. This new delta thread is every bit as bad as it was originally and the vaccinated are getting it, a year ago it was all Trumps fault and the whole country was shut down all for a political stunt. Now it’s individual states fault. Think it’s gonna get **** down this time? Doubt it.

He rejoices any time he can post some bad news, or off the wall crap that has no specific meaning. Just IF it fits his masters agenda. Want to get poked? Fine, go ahead. Not me or many, many others want to be a walking experiment. What part of "free choice" do you lovers of the jab not recognise? F off is my response...BTW, my doctor is not vaxxed, and tells me i'm ok not to take it either!

Covid sucks. Origin investigations and liability suits are in order, STAT

I just saw a story where they DID have live bats at the Wuhan lab in spite of all the lies to the contrary!

Scientists at Wuhan lab in COVID probe admitted being bitten by bats: reports
The state-run TV footage showed researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) disregarding gloves, masks and other PPE while handling bats

Watermelon rinds, cockroaches and chicken bones scattered for acres. The same way he left the White House for President Trump.

No masks. CDC considers tents with walls to be "indoors".

Do as I say, not as I do.

Like the one twitter post said:

"It was outdoors because the tent enclosing everyone was outdoors.

Ok Madison Square Garden is also built outdoors."
