The 37-year-old had been openly sceptical about the risks of Covid-19, writing in a post on April 28 "I'm not buying a f***ing mask" and "I've made it this far by not buying into that damn hype".
In another, he wrote: "I’ve gotten sick of turning my tv on to political smear ads and s**t about COVID.

Friday's operation, which involved 16 members of the MRT, took five hours as rescuers carried Daisy on a stretcher over obstacles including a waterfall.
The spokesman said: "The team rescues canine casualties around a dozen times every year but this was the first time a St Bernard breed has been rescued by the team.
"It was important to get Daisy off the mountain quickly as the weather was due to deteriorate later that evening."
St Bernard rescued from Scafell Pike
A team spokesman said Daisy had been showing signs of pain in her legs and was refusing to move.
St Bernards are traditionally on the other side of such mercy missions - they were originally bred in the Swiss Alps as mountain rescue dogs.

Don’t worry: Daisy — the St. Bernard who reversed mountain rescue conventions — is fine.
The owners of the dog who collapsed while descending England’s tallest mountain says she’s recovering well after a mountain rescue team helped her to safety . ...
Splash Mountain Ride Vehicle Sinks at the Magic Kingdom

The incident took place in Croydon as Ehikioya, 55, was driving home. One of the officers said he had been stopped because of his speed and because “it looked like he had gone through a red light”.
The officer asked Ehikioya for his driving licence as well as proof he was insured to drive the car, that the vehicle had not been stolen, that he was not intoxicated and that he not been using his phone.
Ehikioya said: “I believed I was racially profiled and received no apology. I have kids and a grandson, I would not want them treated like this.”
The two officers left the scene after Ehikioya informed them he was a serving colleague and showed them his police badge.
The training sergeant thanked Northamptonshire Fire and Rescue Service for cutting the cuffs off him using a pedal cutter.
The force's chief constable joked he "would rather have chewed my arm off than call the fire service".
After the incident was shared on Twitter, colleagues of the released officer said the incident carried a "cake fine" and would probably result in a "career-long nickname".
The officer in question - the core training sergeant for the force - was made to walk to the fire station to be cut free from the cuffs.
