Jeremih's Rep Gives Update, Says 'COVID-19 Viciously Attacked His Body'

A rep for the R&B singer Jeremih is speaking out with a new statement amid his battle with COVID-19.

The 33-year-old singer is currently fighting for his life in the hospital and he’s said to be in critical condition.

“The COVID-19 condition he’s experiencing is rare for a young man his age without underlying conditions,” the rep said (via Deadline). “There’s no shame in contracting COVID-19, and people that have it need to be responsible and considerate of others Everyone diagnosed with COVID-19 is affected differently. Unfortunately for Jeremih, COVID-19 viciously attacked his body.”

News of Jeremih‘s hospitalization first came on Saturday and fans weren’t sure what was going on at first. It was later revealed that he is battling the coronavirus.

An update from his agent earlier today revealed that Jeremih was pulled off the ventilator.
