Barrett Pall, a model, hit out at gay men for going abroad for parties as the coronavirus cases surge. (Instagram) After the GaysOverCovid Instagram exposed gay men flocking to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, to party, one gay man has explained why such actions are “classist, ableist and racist”. Model and life coach Barrett Pall directly addressed the gay men who who travelled abroad as the coronavirus pandemic spirals out of control in parts of the United States and further afield, accusing them of putting an already heaving health system at further risk. In a frank Instagram video, Pall criticised gay men for travelling to resorts such as Puerto Vallarta in Mexico, where huge numbers of queer men holidayed to celebrate New Year’s Eve on 31 December – with one party ending in disaster when the boat it was taking place on capsized.
