As the amount of known cases of coronavirus expands, we're going to be seeing certain musicians going public with their diagnosis. It's sheer probability. Earlier today, we learned a member of Slugdge was in quarantine, and today Crown The Empire guitarist Brandon Hoover has confirmed he has the virus.
Brandon wrote on socials:
Welp…I tested positive for the Coronavirus. I've been told to self-quarantine for 14 days (or until further notice). I believe I contracted it through traveling to all these different countries over the past couple of months, but honestly who the fuck knows, it could of happened anywhere. About a week ago I started getting a sore throat, congestion, and was more tired than usual. Then all of a sudden I had severe body aches and a fever of 102 degrees. I was in bed for a couple of days sleeping in puddles of my own sweat. Honestly I thought I just had the flu! So I went to the emergency room and got tested for that as well as the Coronavirus and got my results back last night confirming that I have it. Currently I feel back to normal and most of the symptoms have passed. If anything changes I'll let y'all know. I advise everyone to keep yourselves informed, stay isolated, drink lots of water and wash your hands! I love you all. Please stay safe out there
We hope Brandon has a quick and safe recovery. The CDC recommends social distancing to avoid the spread of the disease, while a cure or vaccine is found.
