Foley cut back on his appearances and other events this year, though during his most recent virtual signing he had his mask off for most of it so he could make it a better experience for the fans. He was only with two other people in the room, but unfortunately, he learned that one of them tested positive, and so did he once he got tested.
Since then he’s been in a hotel room, and he reveals in the video that he missed Christmas and New Year’s with his family. He then reemphasized the importance of taking this seriously and cautiously until a vaccine is readily available.
We’ll keep you posted if we learn more, but our thoughts are with Foley and we wish him a speedy recovery.
