Haven't there been a few cases of guys getting respiratory or heart issues? I wonder if they're testing for these things now for those who contracted it. Can be serious if a person doesn't get on medication or exerts themselves too hard. Tough news for the guy.

It is well known he is the only player on the Oilers roster who was unvaccinated. His social media is very anti-vax.

It must suck to suffer repercussions from a novel disease that hasn't been fully understood by science. If only the world's brightest scientists could have found a way to at least mitigate the effects.

I dont know much about Archibald in particular, apparently he's an Anti-Vaxx nutjob, but I definitely feel bad for people earlier on in the Pandemic who got COVID prior to the wide availability of the vaccine and then it jeopardized their health and ability to have the vaccine when it was available.

I am someone who doesnt react well to medication and most vaccines put me on my ass for a few days so I am careful about them, but I also deal with a lot of people so I get my vaccines regularly.

But the COVID vaccine? Easily....easily the easiest, most painless and simplest vaccine I've ever gotten or dealt with. It was basically a joke.

I have no understanding of the mental gymnastics people have gone through to convince themselves not to get it.

Mind bottling!

well, how the turntables ...

I don't wish an illness on anybody and hope he gets healthy, but "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" is pretty apt here. Just get vaccinated.

I feel bad for those duped by bad advice/scammers.

Less sympathy for those in a position of public influence.

Hope he recovers but when a known, young and healthy pro athlete develops complications like this, it just may convince a few people to get the vaccine.

I've said this a million times. X-Men 3.

Find a way to weaponize the vaccine and then just roll out the Army to just fire them at the unwilling.

Soldiers in the Streets! Lets make it happen!

"Hello Mr. Archibald.....could you pass me that pen over there? Thank you. Also you're vaccinated now. Good day sir. I said Good Day!!"
