John Prine hospitalized in critical condition after having coronavirus symptoms
UPDATE: John is now in stable condition.
Fiona Prine, wife of John Prine, tested positive for coronavirus, as she explained in a video she posted to Instagram nearly two weeks ago. At the time, she said John was also tested, but his results came back “indeterminate.” Now the Prine family has shared an update on John’s condition his Twitter. “After a sudden onset of Covid-19 symptoms,” they write, “John was hospitalized on Thursday (3/26). He was intubated Saturday evening, and continues to receive care, but his situation is critical.”
“This is hard news for us to share,” they continue. “But so many of you have loved and supported John over the years, we wanted to let you know, and give you the chance to send on more of that love and support now. And know that we love you, and John loves you.”
We’re very sorry to hear this news and our best wishes go out to John and the rest of the Prine family.
