“Actor Ice-T used his “no masker” father-in-law on Sunday as a cautionary tale while the coronavirus pandemic surges unchecked into the holiday season. The “Law & Order: SVU” star tweeted the ordeal of Steve Austin ― the father of his wife, Coco Austin ― who contracted COVID-19, spent 40 days in the ICU and nearly died. In an undated photo he shared of Austin appearing to take oxygen, Ice-T wrote that his father-in-law “was a serious ‘No Masker’” until “COVID hit him.” “Pneumonia in both lungs.. 40 days in ICU close to death.. Now he’s on Oxygen indefinitely,” the actor tweeted. “Ohhh he’s a Believer now.” My father-in-law ‘Coco’s dad’ was a serious ‘No Masker’ COVID hit him. Pneumonia in both lungs.. 40 days in ICU close to death.. Now he’s on Oxygen indefinitely. Ohhh he’s a Believer now.. #COVIDisNotAGame pic.twitter.com/fPEifkJCge— ICE T (@FINALLEVEL) 十一月 29, 2020 Austin came down with coronavirus symptoms on Father’s Day, and the disease quickly progressed. 在七月, Ice-T provided an update of his father-in-law’s condition on “The Tonight Show” and tweeted that Austin was finally able to go home from the hospital but was “on Oxygen indefinitely” because of lung damage. UPDATE: Coco’s dad is finally outta the hospital and home after his fight with Covid… He’s on Oxygen indefinitely because of lung damage though.

The actor said he knew eight people who had died from COVID-19. “I don’t need more proof than that to know I don’t want to play with it,“ 他说, according to the Los Angeles Times. The Grammy-winning rapper had previously commented he’d “probably rock a mask and keep my distance for the rest of my life.” Somebody in my comments said I sound scared.. YES I’m scared of YOUR contaminated breath! I’ll probably rock a mask and keep my distance for the rest of my life…— ICE T (@FINALLEVEL) 七月 15, 2020 HuffPost 冠状病毒指南 哪些航空公司在假期旅行中封锁了中间座位? 冠状病毒与流感的传播方式有何不同? 你能在不永远失去朋友的情况下关闭你的 COVID“泡沫”吗? 假期看望祖父母安全吗? 当你也在挣扎时如何帮助焦虑的朋友? 每个人都应该得到有关COVID-19的准确信息. 通过今天成为HuffPost会员，支持无付费壁垒的新闻业-并使每个人都免费.
