Travis Barker revealed he’s tested positive for ‘covid-19’ as he proclaims the virus ‘sucks'
Recently married drummer Travis Barker has reportedly got COVID-19, contracting the virus nearly two months after he was hospitalized for pancreatitis.
The Blink-182 rocker shared the news Thursday on Instagram, posting an artsy throwback photo of him handling drumsticks with a caption that said: “Covid sucks🤬 I’d rather be playing drums.” Check out the post below!
Barker, 46, didn’t share any additional details about his condition and it’s unclear whether he is vaccinated against COVID-19. A representative for the musician did not immediately respond Friday to The Times’ request for comment and a representative for his wife, reality star Kourtney Kardashian, declined to comment.
As of Thursday, California has averaged 10,668 new COVID-19 cases per week, a decrease of 39.8% compared to two weeks ago, according to The Times’ coronavirus tracker. At 324, weekly deaths have increased by 10.2%, but overall hospitalizations are down statewide over that same two-week period.
