<p>Comedian Adam Carolla hit back over an article that claimed the comedian was dragged for &#8220;falsely suggesting&#8221; that it is only the &#8220;old or sick or both&#8221; dying of COVID.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/adam-carolla" target="_blank" rel="noopener">58-year-old comedian</a> called out <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/radio-host-adam-carolla-says-only-old-sick-die-coronavirus-asks-whos-going-get-played-next-1529318" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Newsweek</a> on <a href="https://twitter.com/adamcarolla/status/1608310976314769409?s=20&amp;t=JuhmXP4RIH9ARdJSq7sTrA" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter</a> over an article under a headline that read, &#8220;Radio Host Adam Carolla Says Only &#8216;Old or Sick&#8217; Die of Coronavirus, Asks &#8216;Who&#8217;s Going to Get Played Next Time.’”</p>
<p>&#8220;Tell me all about what I got wrong or shut the f*** up &#8216;news organization,’” Carolla tweeted to his hundreds of thousands of followers.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<p>&mdash; Adam Carolla (@adamcarolla) <a href="https://twitter.com/adamcarolla/status/1608310976314769409?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 29, 2022</a></p></blockquote>
<p>In Carolla&#8217;s original tweet, he <a href="https://twitter.com/adamcarolla/status/1300661191736356865?s=61&amp;t=acejImCzV1UtDtgFc0KmqA" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>, &#8220;Turns out the people dying from covid are old or sick or both. How many of you p****s got played ? and[sic] who&#8217;s going to get played the next time?&#8221;</p>
<p>In the first paragraph of Newsweek&#8217;s article, the author wrote that Carolla &#8220;was blasted on Twitter after falsely suggesting only the &#8216;old or sick&#8217; die from COVID-19, while insulting those who &#8216;got played&#8217; by believing medical experts.&#8221;</p>
<p>Several paragraphs down in the same article, a sentence noted that &#8220;the sick and elderly are more susceptible to serious complications or death due to COVID-19,” but added that&#8217;s not the only group &#8220;the virus kills.&#8221;</p>
<p>In November, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2022/11/28/covid-who-is-dying/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Washington Post</a> published a headline that read, &#8220;Covid becomes plague of elderly, reviving debate over &#8216;acceptable loss.’”</p>
<p>The piece noted that “nearly 9 in 10 covid deaths are in people 65 or older — the highest rate ever,&#8221; according the Post&#8217;s analysis of <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/science/data-review/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CDC data</a>. The Post&#8217;s analysis also found that &#8220;more than 300 people are still dying each day on average from covid-19, most of them 65 or older.&#8221;</p>
<p>Carolla has been very outspoken during the pandemic, noting things like the hypocrisy of politicians such as <a href="https://www.politico.com/states/california/story/2020/11/13/newsom-faces-backlash-after-attending-french-laundry-dinner-party-1336419" target="_blank" rel="noopener">California Governor Gavin Newsom</a> discouraging families from getting together in November 2020 while himself going out to a fancy dinner with friends, and calling out President Joe Biden and CNN anchors who he said scared everyone with each new COVID variant, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/patrick-warburton-hilariously-talks-taking-broom-to-gavin-newsom-pinata-as-adam-carolla-crushes-kaepernick-on-latest-truth-yeller" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.</p>
