Dave Chappelle has been hosting comedy shows in Ohio where social distancing is enforced and rapid tests are given to guests.
His positive diagnosis comes months after his Saturday Night Live hosting where he discussed the ongoing pandemic.
“Do you guys remember what life was like before Covid?” Mr. Chappelle said. “I do. There was a mass shooting every week. Anyone remember that? Thank God for Covid. Someone had to lock these murderous whites up and keep them in the house.”
