        Right-wing rocker Ted Nugent expressed not a peep of concern for anybody he might have infected as he announced that he had tested positive for COVID-19.

        “I have had flu symptoms for the last 10 days,” Nugent reported via Facebook Live on Monday evening. “I thought I was dying.”

        That timing meant the people who had cause for concern prominently included South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem.
