On Monday, Stephen Colbert announced that he tested positive for COVID-19 and would be hosting The Late Show from home. But then yesterday, he said that he was not up for hosting the show.
Today, he gave a further update on his health. “Sorry to say, per doctor’s orders, I’m going to be out for the rest of the week,” he said in his message. “Resting up so that I can deliver the hand crafted, artisanal talk show that we so enjoy serving you. In the meantime, a heady blend of Paxlovid and onions in my socks (thank you, [Jimmy] Fallon) will be rebuilding my immune system.”
I love that Fallon sent him that care package. I wonder what the other members of Strike Force Five are going to send him to get well.
And on that note, I hope it works well, and he is better soon.
