(32,017 posts)1. That's COVID-19.
Low blood oxygen and blood clots in the extremities are known symptoms of the disease, as is the swelling you see in McConnell. Hes probably getting injections of Remdesivir and Dexamethasone. That explains the bandages on his hands.
COVID-19 probably wont kill him. Undoubtedly, he is getting top-of-the-line treatment, but it looks to me like he has it.

I understand the weird hand bruise from a fall...and I guess he could land on his chin, but yeah that looks not good. If that doesn't heal he's very unhealthy.
Fate may take him out before the voters do.
