Same here.
Maybe he will retire.
I expect him to recover.
He will strut onto a balcony and dramatically rip his facemask off a la 45.

Sounds like he's the sort that was discussed here:

COVID is a democrat hoax to keep people from voting and steal the election from dear leader and it was developed in a lab and the commies are behind it plus Hunter Biden who is also a commie and so forth and so on.

I'm sorry Chas.

Thanks to all of you.

My sister-in-law in called my brother-in-law in Anchorage with more info and asked him to call me.
This morning my brother had a high fever and pneumonia.
He was started on regeneron at some point.
The doctor told her that he would be out of the hospital on Friday.

I'm so sorry to hear that, Chas. I hope he pulls through and perhaps starts to take it seriously (and tells his friends).

Does he not believe that he has COVID, or is he just being cranky?

From the tone of voice his daughter used I don't know if they believe it or not. She said he did test positive.

If you can’t be decent and respectful to hospital staff, you don’t deserve care. Ugh.

Poor man, poor care-givers, poor family, poor CHAS.

If they really are sure he'll be out of the hospital on Friday (how can they know?), maybe that's because they've been getting such great results from Regeneron, it really IS a great treatment - as with Trump.

Just curious, but is it covered by his insurance and if so,
what IS his insurance?

Hoping for a positive outcome for your brother.

Hoping he recovers, Chas. While my brother and I vehemently disagree on national politics, he's my brother and always will be.

Hope he will be OK, Chas, in spite of his politics.

Talked to him this morning.
Sent a Hunter S. Thompson quote via text to check.
He answered, so I called.
He sounded good. He is about to start setting things right with the doctors and nurses, which may get him released.
He has a long term problem with low red blood cell count. The doctors have been little help.
He told me it is genetic. I should get it checked. His oximeter readings are higher than mine ever reach.
I doubt the hospital stay will change his mind about anything.
