On Monday, Jan. 3, Ferguson told Seattle’s Morning News on 成人X站 Radio that the virus hit him hard.
“Frankly, I’m still even kind of just recovering from it — just physically, and with the headaches I’ve still got. To be honest, it’s been a real challenge,” he said.
“When I first got it, I was flat on my back for 36 hours and I wasn’t even moving. So it’s been kind of a slow recovery since then,” he added.
Ferguson is fully vaccinated but had not yet received a booster shot. He’s planning to get one Tuesday.
“I wish I just made it more of a priority to take the time to get that booster earlier,” he shared. “It’s going to be important to get for everybody.”
As of Dec. 20, 2021, 82.2% of the state’s population age 12 and up has received at least one dose, and 75.6% is fully vaccinated, .
