“Thank God, I am vaccinated. I had already taken it and plan to have the booster. The virus took me down in the first three or four days, with fever, body aches, and head aches. I didn't lose my sense of taste or smell, thank goodness. I had no lung complications. They’re fine,” Buffer said on his YouTube channel. YouTube.

Recovering well from the disease, Bruce made a point of making his opinion about the vaccine public. According to the Ultimate presenter, his condition may not have been more serious because he chose to receive the vaccine.

“What I can say, guys, is that I hope you get the vaccine. I don't want to raise controversy. If I hadn’t been vaccinated, who knows how this would have ended,” she concluded.
