Former Leave It to Beaver star Tony Dow is working through a case of pneumonia.

Dow, 76, was hospitalized with the illness on Thursday — after waiting more than 24 hours to get a bed due to COVID-19. His wife, Lauren Shulkind, first confirmed his diagnosis to TMZ.

On Monday, Dow's agent, Frank Bilotta, gave an update on the former television star's health.

"Tony has been diagnosed with pneumonia but is in good spirits and is doing well," Bilotta said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. "He was up walking around yesterday and his doctors think he should be able to return home within the week."

Pneumonia inflames an infected individual's air sacs in one or both of their lungs, and it can also cause symptoms such as coughing with phlegm or pus. Cases can range from mild to life-threatening.

1. He couldn't get an ICU bed because they were all taken

up by Covid patients, the majority of whom are The Unvaccinated.

This is so fucked up and it should make everyone dry angry.
