I got vaxxed, boosted, and have been following protocols for the last two years. Laying on the couch three days after my first positive test. I got bit. Please, get vaxxed and wear your fucking mask. Do your part. Are you a real patriot or not?

It's a trick. Generates sympathy. Distracts from SCOTUS nominee. Gives him an out on future debates. Gives him the opportunity to say 'that wasn't so bad', or credit some 'miracle vaccine' with a cure right before the election. Makes any transition of power messier. Diabolical.
