According to this story, Laura Loomer — the crazy Muslim-hating, conspiracy-touting, sensationalist — is battling COVID. We'll keep an eye on this one.
And relative to COVID we only need to quote one thing:

Maybe she'll change her ways? Maybe she'll get better and use the angry podium she's created to tell others to get vaccinated? We'll see.
Stay tuned.
August 26, 2022 update to Vaxman's original story from 9/18/21:
Laura Loomer survived her bout of Covid. She said, "Can't even begin to explain how brutal the body aches and nausea that come with covid are. I am in so much pain. This is honestly the worst part about it." She was treated with hydroxychloroquine and asked for prayers. She tried to get Ivermectin but was denied. Sounds like it was a bit worse than food poisoning to me! Regardless, she made it through.
Recently, she won the Republican's nomination to represent Florida's 11th district in the US House of Representatives. She narrowly lost to incumbent U.S. Rep. Daniel Webster. She refuses to concede the election and is claiming she lost due to voter fraud. So far, she has been unable to produce any evidence to back up this claim.
She may have won the fight against Covid but she lost the election.
UPDATE Jun 26, 2023:
Laura Loomer can't taste her food anymore. I guess she can expect more bouts of food poisoning (that she thought was potentially worse than COVID):

On recent livestreams, Donald Trump’s former attorney accused the women of “quadruple counting the ballots” and “passing hard drives that we maintain were used to fix the machine” during the 2020 presidential election —…
I'm probably late to the party, but I thought I'd offer my poem dedicated to the first FAFO casualty of Trump Redux:
Trump’s AG stood ready to show ’em
Turns out he hired teen girls to blow him
We aren’t shocked the fates
Would take out Matt Gaetz
Now Donny says “I barely know him!”
Gonna be a long four years BINGO...
