HK Singer Donald Cheung, 69, Hospitalised After Testing Positive For COVID-19 — “His Condition Has Worsened And Things Don’t Look Good,” Says Hospital
He made headlines in 2020 for refusing to wear a mask in public.
Veteran Hongkong singer Donald Cheung Wai Mun has been hospitalised after testing positive for COVID-19. The 69-year-old is in such a serious condition that doctors have advised against him going on life support should he take a turn for the worse.
Donald, who is said to be unvaccinated, has been in hospital for over a week, according to reports. His manager shared that he has been plagued with a “high fever [and] low blood oxygen levels”.
Doctors have also told him that they do not feel that Donald be put on a ventilator should he require oxygen supplementation as they “do not recommend putting the patient through suffering”. The hospital has informed his manager that “Donald’s condition has worsened and things don’t look good”.
We hope he makes a full recovery
He was reportedly living in a nursing home in recent years, and suffers from chronic conditions which have left him wheelchair-bound.
Donald made headlines in May 2020 when he talked about how he felt that he would be “discriminated against” for not wearing a mask in Hongkong. At the time, he said that he would not wear masks in public as he was “confident” about his health and that he would “stay away from crowds” to be responsible to those around him. Hongkong only made mask-wearing mandatory in July 2020.
