MSNBC Contributor Dr Joseph Fair Hospitalized with COVID-19



Dr. Joseph Fair ✔ @curefinder

My friends wondering where I’ve been: I came down with #COVID19 & am hospitalized. I’m on the other end of it, but not out of the woods yet. Please continue to social distance. I used max precautions, but still managed to contract it. Back as soon as I’m able, friends. #StaySafe

He had a lot of comforting explanations about this mysterious disease and I always stopped to listen to what he had to say.

Dr. Fair has been one very reasonable, very consistent voice in the analysis and commentary on the pandemic. He deals in facts and science, not hyperbole or politics. I always feel like I'm better informed after he's on a segment.

He says he's on the "other side" of it but still needs to be wary. I wish him well and hope he will be able to regain his health.

It seems so many folks take a dive when it seems they are moving forward. Fingers crossed for this guy. He’s on the side of science.
