C-C-C-C-COMBO

I'M LOVING THIS RONA

Kirstie Allsopp’s husband(?) got it, then they travelled to her second home in Devon where they infected her sister. Who then went to Scotland.

I saw that furore. Good to know it's not just the feckless poor who can contract the virus.

Jackson Browne

the guy who'd attended 1076 Charlton games in a row until now has died from this aged 38

the first time this has felt like the end of something tbh

Sorry man :-(

ty. this one has hit home v hard but i guess it makes less sense if you're not a fan of the soccer team i follow

Not at all. I can imagine it being someone from the team I follow, or someone from the field I work in etc. All too well.

wtf at "soccer" though, are you feeling unwell?

LBI otm, on both parts.

Paul Goma, Romanian writer and anti-communist dissident, 84.

Apparently also an antisemite

Par for the course tbh.

Boris Akunin / Grigori Chkhartishvili, author of the Erast Fandorin novels.

Rapper Scarface has tested positive.

We could probably do with some convention one way or another to say who's infected and who's gone?

yes this is necessary I think, these are gonna pile up and we'll have some unnecessary scares

I was appending (+) upthread

dude wtf scarface???

BORIS JOHNSON

Over the last 24 hours I have developed mild symptoms and tested positive for coronavirus.

I am now self-isolating, but I will continue to lead the government’s response via video-conference as we fight this virus.

Together we will beat this. #StayHomeSaveLives pic.twitter.com/9Te6aFP0Ri

Sooooooo, when did he last meet the Queen?

You reckon she gave it to him?

in the spirit of reaching out across the political divide I hope his death is painless

Pmqs was yesterday, he could have infected tons of MPs (including Corbyn :( )

bloody melts

Virginia USA: a Virginia pastor who claimed the “mass hysteria” around the coronavirus pandemic was part of a media plot against Trump, has died from the virus.

He was on his way back from New Orleans “washing it of sin and debauchery” when he fell ill.

Till Lindeman, lead singer of Rammstein, is in ICU w/ corona https://www.bild.de/bild-plus/unterhaltung/leute/leute/corona-drama-till-lindemann-auf-intensivstation-69663218,view=conversionToLogin.bild.html#fromWall

we believe he has it?

or is it the "under medical advice" of hiding in a fridge

Pmqs was yesterday, he could have infected tons of MPs (including Corbyn :( )

hope he didn't shake hands for Corb's last PMQs or anything

Two swords and one inch > 2m rule

So me and Boris Johnson having the virus is pure coincidence- honest 😳

Domino day!

I didn't know you could catch it though <REDACTED>

doris burke

Country Singer Joe Diffie +

Till Lindemann has apparently tested negative, thankfully.

Architect Michael McKinnell (designed Boston City Hall)

Knicks owner James Dolan +

ah, that explains the assholism

He means reinfections typically don't happen that quickly.

They’re getting faster, though - there was the Spanish hospital worker who got omicron 20 days after Delta, in January

Some kind of testing glitch is more likely re Kimmel, but maybe he’s just, once again, a pioneer

To Neanderthal's point. here's Bob Wachter's thread. His wife caught COVID at a conference last week and has taken Paxlovid:

If you follow me, you know that my wife @katiehafner had Covid last week, took Paxlovid, & is now testing negative.
In this 🧵(w/ a few polls to see your thoughts), I’ll discuss what to do in the post-Covid period, in light of the latest Covid curveball, Paxlovid rebound. (1/25)

Delta didn't confer very good real cross-variant protection against Omicron though so that scenario makes sense. Omicron against Omicron is supposed to, even if BA.1 to BA.2

Jeff Ament, bass player for Pearl Jam :(

PROTECT JEFF AMENT!

This is like Derek Smalls becoming involved in a bizarre gardening accident imo

Laura Pausini, Italian singer and Eurovision song contest presenter, had to miss part of the show last weekend with low blood pressure, turns out she got the covids.

Jacinda Ardern loses sense of taste after contracting Covid, and can’t enjoy cheese roll

Popular rock singer Mick Jagger

The singer, 78, began to develop symptoms as he arrived at the Johan Cruijff ArenA in the Dutch capital earlier in the day.

Elderly politician Joseph Biden

Can't wait to see what he's like when his energy level drops.

Urgh at all the blue tick grifters using this to bash vaccines

Looking for when the Sight & Sound poll comes out, came across this:

Denny Laine has started a GoFundMe campaign for his medical expenses:

For the past two months, he’s been in and out of the hospital concerning an illness in his lungs that developed after his short bout with COVID last year. He’s had multiple tests, X-rays and scans that are ongoing, along with three surgeries, most recently for a collapsed lung, which includes an inserted chest tube that is temporarily needed until his lung heals.
He recently contracted a bacterial infection in his blood, which he is still battling, but seems to be under control.

The doctors have explained once he’s medically well, he will need several weeks of physical and occupational rehabilitation. Denny does not have medical insurance. The hospital has been working with us regarding this problem, but a rehabilitation center, along with the multiple lab work and specialists, will not. Denny is unable to fly due to his medical condition, as well as he needs to avoid long distance drives. He has to remain here in Naples to recover.

Come on Paul, chuck him a tenner.
