No snark. Just sad that the entertainer survived but the medical professional succumbed to the virus.

“I need to clarify what I mean by ‘John is stable,’ ” Fiona wrote in a follow-up tweet. “That is not the same as improving. "

As far as I'm concerned an upgrade in status, however slight it may be, is an improvement. So being deemed stable rather than critical is an improvement. I understand that he's not all better and that he still has a steep climb to wellness.

Can't anyone be glad for him even if he hasn't fully recovered?
