Hughley says that upon arrival to Saint Thomas hospital he was being treated for extreme exhaustion and dehydration but after doctors ran several tests his coronavirus results were revealed.
The legendary comedian recalled that he did not have flu-like symptoms that are typically connected to diagnosing coronavirus.
In addition to having to be on the lookout for the common symptoms, Hughley jokingly said if you “pass out in the middle of a show, on stage, you probably need to get tested.”
Hughley plans to remain in quarantine in his Nashville hotel room for 14 days, his upcoming comedy performances at Zanies have been canceled.
