Newsmax TV contributor Herman Cain was admitted to a hospital Wednesday and is being treated for COVID-19.

The former Republican presidential candidate is doing well and is not on a ventilator, his staff tells Newsmax.

Cain, who also is a regular guest on "Newsmax Now," joined Newsmax TV as a contributor in April.

He also hosts “Herman Cain’s America,” a weekend show that airs on Newsmax TV.

5. Wishing him a full and speedy recovery

And I hope he gets better from this infection, too.

I wonder if his Newsmax audience will now be convinced that those Chinese virus hoaxsters have gotten to Herman Cain? Will there be a Cain mutiny against continuing his show?

6. No one is safe.

As long as some don't wear masks.

Video of Cain dancing at the Tulsa rally. At about the 24 second mark Cain shows up:

14. Cain looks sick at the rally. He probably spread it.

The horror.

[Yavin4]

21. I don't see a mask any where in that video.

covid-19: Am I a joke to you people?

[2naSalit]

12. Tots and pears.

[Vinca]

13. Well, hucky ducky. Thoughts and prayers.

[Under The Radar]

15. I am sure it is just sniffles and a dry cough

[LisaL]

24. They don't admit people with dry cough and sniffles into a hospital. They send them home

and tell to take over the counter meds.

27. Yes Ma'am, I should have hung the Sarcasm sign

[Hassin Bin Sober]

16. I hope it hurts.

17. He is a survivor of stage 4 colon and liver cancers, so he might have a rough time of it.

.."Q: You are a survivor of stage 4 colon and liver cancer. But you say if Obamacare had been in effect, you would dead now. Why?

CAIN: The reason I said that I would be dead under Obamacare is because my cancer was detected in March of 2006."....(I will spare you the remainder of his b.s. misrepresentations of the Affordable Care Act, which he was itching to repeal)

[LisaL]

25. So why would someone who survived cancer go to a rally, without even wearing a mask?

When he should have been isolating to avoid covid.

[Tanuki]

26. He's also 74 years old! That alone should have been sufficient reason to exercise caution.

[jalan48]

18. Hope he wasn't making pizzas..

23. This could knock a major dent in the entire Republican brain trust. They don't have many thinkers.
