Dave Navarro has long covid: Will be back to my old self in nobody knows how long

Publish date: 2024-06-06

How are our Bitches doing? Is everyone staying healthy? I’ve had extra friends get Covid in the previous couple of weeks, it’s wild. We also had our first Covid circumstances in my family. My niece and oldest brother, both vaxxed and boosted. They had been 12 hours into a 38-hour highway commute when one among my niece’s fellow nursing citizens texted her telling her she’d simply examined positive. They had to cancel their hike in the Grand Canyon consequently. My niece is fine now but my brother continues to be struggling. I am hoping it’s a gentle case and not long haul Covid, like Dave Navarro has. The guitar legend (my opinion) knowledgeable fanatics by way of Instagram that he’s been suffering with the coronavirus since December. His band Jane’s Addiction just had to cancel their appearance at the Welcome to Rockville competition as a result of Dave won’t be ready to make it. The excellent news is Dave said he's meant to get back to “his old self.” The bad information is he doesn’t know when.

Dave Navarro has unfolded about his combat with long COVID which he has been coping with since closing December.

On Saturday (May 28), the Jane’s Addiction guitarist took to Instagram to talk about his lingering health issues which just lately pressured the band to pull out of this 12 months’s Welcome To Rockville competition in Florida.

“So yeah, I’m some of the ones who came down with the ‘long haul covid’. Been ill since December and supposedly will be back to my old self in… nobody knows how long,” he wrote alongside a photograph of himself.

“If there are any of you who're still suffering long after your negative results, I’m just announcing you aren’t alone. The fatigue and isolation is lovely terrible but try to spend your time with the ones you like and keep creative. That’s how I’m making an attempt to get via this factor. Also loads of religious practices, meditation and yoga have been very useful. I’ll be ok, simply don’t know when.

“PS I’m no longer positive why I selected this picture to say all this. Maybe because who really cares and you gotta to find a laugh somewhere? Or no less than some levity. Love and laughter are superb antidotes for a sickness that you just in point of fact can’t track.”

He concluded: “Anyway thank you for listening and don’t worry about me. All indicators are pointing to a full recovery in the future!

“There’s really not more to say on the topic so I’d admire no longer receiving a number of DMs or texts. Not out of disrespect for you guys, I’m in order that tired of talking about this, I’m positive you'll be able to believe!

“Sending you all love and light. Even to those of you who're stoked I’m unwell!”

I didn’t put up the IG itself as a result of Dave’s taken it down for some explanation why. Maybe long haul Covid isn’t rock n’ roll sufficient. Or perhaps whatever photograph he referred to in his caption was too goofy. It almost definitely has much more to do with his ultimate part about now not in need of to receive DMs or texts about his situation. I remember that, honestly. We talk so much about how superb it's that celebs talk about issues out within the open however each and every time they do, it comes with a mountain of responses. And every now and then those responses feel like thy need replies, and so on. It can be hard. If Dave’s already burnt up by Covid, he tired enough.

However, the message I am hoping we’re all taking from that is don’t let your guard down. I’m starting to listen numerous incorrect information from individuals who just want the pandemic to be over. And those are vaxxed and boosted people, people who were cautious and adhered to recommendations. But they would like to imagine they’re in the clear so they’re performing find it irresistible. Dave sounds drained in his IG publish and that’s simply from reading it. Nobody desires six months of that. Plus, Dave has the cash to sit down out six months to heal correctly. Even if he’s trying out damaging, despite the fact that he’s intended to make a full recovery (which, thank gawd for that) it sounds miserable. I'm hoping Dave’s go back to his old self begins quickly. I additionally hope he posts once more so folks know that long haul Covid continues to be in the market and will have an effect on actually everybody.

I sniffed round a bit. I see that Dave stated he tested detrimental but I don't see any articles that verify Dave was once vaccinated. I know he used to be supposed to play the Welcome to Rockville festival, however they don’t have any Covid protocols in position.
