Lamb passed away yesterday after being hospitalized with COVID-19. Lamb was an outspoken opponent of Covid vaccines.

Throughout the pandemic, Daystar hosted prominent anti-vaccine voices, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who was barred from Instagram for spreading misinformation about the COVID-19 vaccine, according to Newsweek. On the religious network's website, Daystar called vaccines the "most dangerous thing" children face, and Daystar filed a petition to block President Joe Biden's vaccine rule from going into place.

His wife Joni confirmed he passed away yesterday.  Marcus Lamb was 64.
