Joe Rogan, a podcasting giant who has been dismissive of vaccination, has Covid.
Source: New York Times
Joe Rogan, the host of the hugely popular podcast The Joe Rogan Experience, said on Wednesday that he had tested positive for the coronavirus after he returned from a series of shows in Florida, where the virus is rampant.
Mr. Rogan, who was rebuked by federal officials last spring for suggesting on the podcast that young healthy people need not get Covid vaccinations, said that he started feeling sick on Saturday night after he returned from performing in Orlando, Tampa and Fort Lauderdale.
Throughout the night I got fevers, sweats, and I knew what was going on, he said in a video on Instagram, adding that he isolated himself from his family, staying in a different part of his house.

(9,470 posts)Real Covidiots don't need to take scientifically-validated medications or even go to the hospital. I guess Rogan is just another weak, low energy beta male loser.

Mask up and vaccinate everyone, or it could be you in the hospital begging for a second chance and for the doctors to forgive you for your selfishness!

(14,164 posts)If he does. That it was just like a bad case of the flu. And he don't take no flu shots either. And that it only proves his point that an even younger person would have no problem at all. And we can survive it without putting "poison" in our arms.
This seems to be the MO of most of the anti-vaxers who get it, have mild symptoms, and survive.
Of course this totally overlooks the point about spreading to others, who are more vulnerable. Which i don't think he appreciates.
