Sarah Palin Reveals COVID Diagnosis and 'Bizarre' Symptoms, Urges Others to Continue Wearing Masks
People ^ | Mar 2021 | Benjamin VanHoose and Tim McGovern

Sarah Palin has tested positive for COVID-19, and she's urging others to continue taking the pandemic seriously.

The former governor of Alaska and 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee-turned-TV personality confirms in a statement to PEOPLE that she contracted the coronavirus as did some of her family members, including 12-year-old son Trig. Of her diagnosis, Palin explains that it began when "one of my daughters awoke to having lost her sense of taste and smell [and] immediately had a positive COVID test, then was quarantined in isolation.

"I then observed symptoms in my son Trig, who curiously is the most enthusiastic mask-wearer, and after our numerous negative tests over the year, he tested positive," Palin says. "Children with special needs are vulnerable to COVID ramifications [Trig was born with Down syndrome], so with a high fever he was prescribed azithromycin, which really seemed to help, and I increased amounts of vitamins I put in his puréed food."

Palin says she and her son "buckled down in isolated quarantine" and she "still tested negative." However, "symptoms started overnight with a slight fever and sore muscles."

She adds that she had some of the "bizarre" symptoms characteristic of the virus, like a loss of taste and smell, leading her to assume it was "unmistakable COVID caught me."

Palin tells PEOPLE that COVID-19 can "really knock you down," encouraging everyone to remain vigilant about public health amid the ongoing pandemic.

Palin, who announced in January that her mother, Sally, had died, says that dad Chuck Heath "just got" his second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

"I'm more concerned about him and his peers, and this beautiful older generation's health and quality of life should be a national focus and priority," she says.

"Not enough sunlight up in Alaska"

Actually, On March 21, the first day of Spring, every place on earth has exactly the same amount of time where the sun is above the horizon. Between then and Fall, Alaska has more available sunlight than any other place in the US.

Both my parents grew up during the Depression. My mother used to eat lard sandwiches and developed a taste for them even after the Depression.

They’ve straight up said that mask use will increase the risk of getting sick. Then they act surprised when it happens? I’m so frustrated by the amount of people who just throw sense out the window.

Treatment prophylaxis for the virus that leads to COVID-19. It’s actually been OTC for years and years and can even be bought online.

It’s called XLEAR.

Here’s the recent study results on it as it was looked at how it performed against SARS-COV-2.

Ok, so Trig wears a mask (religiously), and he got Covid. But you’re telling everyone to wear a mask.

Got it.

(hint: this actually proves that masks don’t work.)

I can’t see why this is Breaking News. But I also can't believe how some have turned on our girl Sarah Palin. Wearing a mask is a personal choice. Just don't mandate them (or a vaccine).

Oh, the anti-maskers and anti-vaxxers talk big about personal choice and make fun of those who scream in public about the virus, but many of them are just as judgmental as the people they complain about.

I say good for Sarah for sharing her experience.

Because she is a pop culture sellout and part of the establishment wing of the Republican party.

That’s right. Come down to the OBX NC, and stay with me for awhile. I make a wicked calzone. DM

While it’s certainly not the explanation for every case of car wearing, rideshare drivers and passengers of Uber and other companies HAVE to wear masks. Every time you order a ride they make it clear that they will ban you from the service if you don’t wear one. Also, there are examples like one relative taking an elderly relative who has been isolating on a necessary trip to the doctor. I realize the anti-maskers don’t believe in any of it, but if one does, it does make sense to do it in that situation. And you can’t always tell when the driver has passengers.
