Welcome to the Megan Kelly show, your home for open, honest, and provocative conversations.

Hey everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly show. First up today, I want

to discuss with you a new COVID study that virtually all of the media will likely ignore.

Why? It suggests almost half of those hospitalized with COVID, you know, they keep trying to

And what are the hospitalizations and what is the death rate? And this is something they've
