Interesting how the Madonna saga has evolved these days from bacterial infection to probably overdose.
Something to add for the antivax dude and everyone else here, you know Insurance companies don't like having to cover covid either these days, and even make singers sign contracts to avoid talking about it? It's also making it harder for smaller acts to get a better insurance or have it complicated until they complete the first dates.
That's why Taylor is performing in outdoor stadios and with a very big platform far from the peasants, and has her staff masked, I wouldn't be surprised if she had UVC lights as well. You're seeing all the time swiftties getting virus bc almost no one recognises the pandemic is still ongoing and Is very gross how some people early in this thread only cared about their concert tickets, people also don't care about infecting others, if you've had this conversation with anyone they will tell you something like "well, they won't know that stranger they got it from was me".
Many performing artist have suffered this summer, we've seen Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Nicks and Robbie Williams had even talk about it on stage, also young ones are affected, I remember Enrique Iglesias a few weeks ago had to be hospitalized and I think Harry Styles has LC as well, not to mention Edd Sheeran living in contagion island has had it iirc at least 5 times (minimizers will use it as a pro-infection argument but here's a facr: red haired have lower white cells). You also have Demi who got sick last year and even uploaded a story only to delete it in minutes saying that would be her last tour, fyi, she got a tonsilectomy in 2013 bc she got sick all the time and we all know that chaged her voice.
We need everyone to take updated and better vaccines, improve indoor air like they used to in the early XX century as well. We got very good numbers back in late 2021 when we have some inmmunity bc lots of people had the vaccine taken very few months ago. Novavax provides longer and some mucosal inmunity which the previous vaccines DIDN'T do and would be a good chance for erradication, AI tests as well, late in 2022 they we able to use unscripted voice samples taken withjust a dataset made from youtubers which can be used for testing, having test on everyone's smarthphones would be super cheap, BMA (British medical association) report about doctors getting LC went from 54% only to 46% after vaccines) so you all better think there's something we can do, for yourself or for your belloved artists who need to take care of their voices, which are a delicate thing!
