What of Lat??

Has anyone heard an update? After considerable ranting about defects in the coronavirus testing process, Lat seems to have suddenly faded from the news. In the pictures that ran with the coverage of last Tuesday and Wednesday, he was looking none too well, unshaven, and perhaps heavily anesthetized.

Based on the reports and descriptions in his tweets, Lat was still suffering severe symptoms in the 14-19-day progress period that has been associated with significant COVID-19 mortality.

At this juncture, let us be mindful that, although Lat ostracized the Commenteriat, he also, to a considerable degree, helped create it.  In a significant sense, Lat, despite his occasional errors in judgment, is like the estranged, gay, adoptive father of the Commenteriat.

Prayers from here, for his recovery, and I hope that everyone will join in.
