ESPN Sports Personality and ‘General Hospital’ Guest Star, Stephen A. Smith Reveals COVID-19 Nearly Took His Life
In a harrowing account of coming down with Covid-19, ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith, who also has a recurring role on General Hospital as Brick, revealed his battle over the holidays that led to him being hospitalized because of the severity of his symptoms.
On Monday, Smith returned to his co-hosting gig on ESPN’s First Take and it was there he shared what happened during his breakthrough case of Covid. Stephen had been fully vaccinated. Smith said that he had tested positive late in December and wound up in the hospital with pneumonia in both lungs over New Years.

Stephen A. discussed the details, expressing: “I had 103 degree fever every night. Woke up with chills and a pool of sweat. Headaches were massive. Coughing profusely. And it got to a point where right before New Year’s Eve, I was in the hospital into New Year’s Day. That’s how I brought in the New Year.”
He went on to say about contracting Covid-19: “For me personally, it hit me differently. (Doctors) told me, had I not been vaccinated, I wouldn’t be here. That’s how bad I was. I had pneumonia in both lungs. My liver was bad, and it ravaged me to the point where even now I have to monitor my volume, get to the gym every day … I’m still not 100% with my lungs, but I’m Covid negative … I’m on the road to recovery.”
On a happier note, Smith shared how glad he was to be back at work after testing negative: “I’m ecstatic to be back. I’ve missed being at work. I’ve used more sick days in the last month than I’ve used in my 28-year career in this business. And I can’t tell you how lucky and sincerely blessed I am to be sitting here with you guys today because two-and-a-half, three weeks ago, I didn’t know if I was gonna make it.”
So, glad to know Stephen A. is on the mend from a very scary bout with Covid? Share your thoughts in the comment section

they were all just on Katie Guess they are all in NY. valentini was also there.same old same old and I watch the show.
🙂 all this hoop-lah makes my heart happy! I LOVE GENERAL HOSPITAL
me TOO!
I hope ABC is truly committed to GH, and not using its 50th anniversary hoopla just to generate publicity for its news and talk shows. Otherwise i wouldnt mind watching them. Meanwhile a columnist did a story in our local newspaper about watching GH when she was a kid and how her and her sister have tuned in for GHs 50th!
the Katie showing was all about Katie, Katie, Katie and he 20/20 special.
Her cloy act really annoys me!
I have been enjoying every minute of GH’s 50 celebration – the special guest appearances, interviews, clips, advertisements and the actual show. I love GH and have been watching for the last 40 years. Keep GH Alive! I am so addicted and this is the best addiction anyone could possibly have! Love it, love it, love it!
I absolutely LOVE GH! I’ve been watching since I was like 3 or 4 years old watching with my mom. **) My new fave characters are Sabrina & Felix! But I’m still loving my fave- faves including Carly, Sam, Liz, Maxie and Luke!!! And it’s awesome having AJ back plus his blossoming relationship w/Liz. THIS SHOW IS THE BEST!
I will definitely tune in.
its been awesome and fitting the support that some entertaintment shows like access hollywood have shown to the iconic GH . keep it coming .
Great synergy!
Loving the fact that GH is being honored for such an outstanding n exciting time hey not many if any can say they have been part of something for 50 years glad ABC recognizes it congrats GH
I agree!
The GH Blitz has been incredible! Being able to see and hear what these vets have to say is a tremendous gift! Sincerest thanks, Frank!!
Very happy they are getting the deserved press. Hope fans old & new tune in. The show is ON FIRE!
Staying tuned to GMA. Love my GH stars and all this publicity!! About time ABC gives them some respect 🙂
They are doing a great job…this needs to happen more often. And comcast needs to bring back soapnet as a channel option!
Should have kept AMC and OLTL on the air. I have loved the 50th episodes. Watched the episode about BJ’s death and cried just like I did years ago. They should figure out a way to bring Tony and Alan back. I miss both characters.
