“I know COVID is a drag and we all suffer because of it, and you can’t blame China, so it is.”

The I’d Do Anything for Love singer then went on to explain that his voice was hoarse because he had just returned from an endoscopy – a medical procedure that involves probing the digestive tract with camera.

“I can’t really sing right now because I’m under anesthesia today and I have a tube stuck in my throat – yes, an endoscopy this morning. Ugh,” he explains.

The Grammy Award-winning performer is said to be an outspoken opponent of the vaccination, muscle-locking and masking mandate.

The rocker suffered from a range of health problems, including asthma and an injured back.

“And on CNN last night, it was finally revealed that the masks we’re all wearing are useless. But I’ve known that for six months. They don’t do anything. They don’t stop you from getting Covid. They just a nuisance and makes your nose itch and makes you unable to breathe.”

After the interviewer said, “We are being controlled by people”, he replied, “Yes, I know. But not me. If I die, I die, but I will not be controlled. “

In May, he posted a clip of Eric Clapton and Van Morrison’s anti-lockdown song, Stand & Deliver, writing, “Listen and Learn.”

Meat Loaf also previously branded Covid as “a drag” in a post from October 2020, where he wrote: “Hi everyone, nothing happened. It’s a drag. Covid is a drag. Where I live, everything is open and evolving. world entertainment centers are on lockdown. WHY?”
