Still no updates from the Supreme Court on Clarence Thomas, who has been in the hospital since Friday with an unspecified infection. The court did not disclose the hospitalization until Sunday evening, and the court said then that he expected to be released within a day or two.
It was previously denied it was COVID but something seems a bit strange if this is day 6 of his hospitalization and we have scant information about it.
Update: Chief Justice Roberts said Thomas did not participate in SCOTUS work today (Wednesday) although he had been present remotely during previous days.

(2,220 posts)When Hubster had sepsis, he was in the hospital for a week and as sick as you can be without being in ICU. . It took several months for him to bounce back physically, and he is younger and healthier than Thomas.

(2,220 posts)Luckily, Hubster has a pit bull for a wife, and I would not let go when I got the feeling he was seriously ill and got him to his doctor who immediately admitted him. He was starting to lose kidney function within twelve hours, but they were able to reverse it. The rest of the week was a slow, steady improvement but, damn, he was so weak. He was off work for four months, and it took another month to work back up to full time.

(856 posts)It was announced on Sunday that he'd been admitted on Friday. I think they hoped to avoid any public attention ... They were hoping her be out by Sunday. Wonder if this is the first time?

(1,680 posts)I never have understood how he could side with the Republicans for his rulings. I think doesnt he realize that the majority of Republicans have contempt for most Black people and they should walk 10 paces is behind and are only worthy to shine the shoes of the Republicans. As others have suggested, the Republican party is known as the Racist party to many. Unfortunately, seems pretty accurate to me.
