“歌手 Jeremih 在逗留期间与 COVID-19 抗争后，已从芝加哥西北纪念医院出院, 他的家人说. The 33-year-old R&B artist, 本名杰瑞米·费尔顿, thanked the medical staff at the hospital, adding that he was “forever grateful,” in a statement released by his family to CNN on Saturday. “First and foremost I would like to thank God and the incredible team of doctors and nurses at Northwestern Memorial Hospital for saving my life,” Felton said in the statement. “I will be forever grateful. I would also like to thank my family and friends for all their prayers and well wishes.” News that the “Don’t Tell ’Em” singer was hospitalized due to the coronavirus first broke last month when his friends in the music industry began posting about his health condition on social media in mid-November. Chance the Rapper, who has collaborated with Felton in the past to create Christmas-themed mixtapes, tweeted on Nov. 14: “Please if you can take a second to pray for my friend Jeremih, he is like a brother to me and he’s ill right now.” 50 Cent tweeted the next day that Felton was “not doing good” and that he was battling COVID-19. Please if you can take a second to pray for my friend Jeremih, he is like a brother to me and he’s ill right now.

Felton had no underlying conditions, according to the statement. “There’s no shame in contracting COVID-19, and people that have it need to be responsible and considerate of others,” the statement read. “Everyone diagnosed with COVID-19 is affected differently.” The singer’s family then released an encouraging update on Felton’s health on Nov. 21, telling Billboard that he had been transferred out of the ICU and was recovering in a “regular hospital room.” On Thursday, Chance the Rapper tweeted that he had just had a phone call with Felton and that that was the first time he had heard his voice in over a month. He shared that the singer would be leaving the hospital the following day.
