Sorry, but NO "stories" out there ever said "COVID got him".

Sorry to burst your time-warp bubble, but...

My first reply was 3.5 hours after you posted the thread.
Not only were all of the articles I referenced published well before that, but they were also published before you even posted this thread (some of which were from the day before).

Not all the same ones I initially found, but here are a few:

tommy-tiny-lister-who-played-deebo-friday-dies-62

tommy-lister-friday-dead

Tommy ‘Tiny’ Lister, who played Deebo in ‘Friday,’ dies

tiny-lister-longtime-character-actor-dead-at-62

Tommy-Tiny-Lister-dead-at-62-heart-attack-Deebo-Friday

friday-star-tommy-deebo-lister-dead-at-62

Wait, here's one I just found that was published 6 minutes after your thread post, if that makes you feel any better:

tommy-tiny-lister-died


And again, NO article that I've found said "COVID got him" at any point, or that it was even the suspected/probable COD. They all simply said he was "experiencing Covid-like symptoms" prior to his death.
The problem is that there are a ton of different things with similar symptoms out there. But, if you wield the Covid hammer of fear, everything looks like a nail.

You could've posted a less definitive statement, based on the facts at hand, but you chose not to.

I was simply REPEATING WHAT WAS WRITTEN, IN PRINT, BY SEVERAL SOURCES, ABOUT A FAMOUS DUDE THAT DIED. That's it. Nothing more.
Well, maybe it was subconscious then. Again, you posted a definitive statement based on zero facts, that was in keeping with the current wave of Covid fear mongering and knee-jerk "reporting" (if it walks like a duck...).
And then ironically followed up with "you people are annoying" and "get over yourselves" retorts. So yeah, back at ya...

But, if you can reference any initial articles that erroneously reported he died from Covid, I'll concede the point.
