Daily Caller ^ | December 08, 2022 5:31 PM ET | LEENA NASIR

Former “Saturday Night Live” star Chris Kattan is in the hospital with a severe case of pneumonia that reportedly required emergency surgery.

Sources close to the situation reported that Kattan was rushed to the hospital Sunday after contracting an extreme case of pneumonia called Streptococcus Pneumoniae, according to TMZ. Doctors then operated on Kattan in an emergency procedure, the outlet reported.

Kattan’s surgery was successful and he has remained under observation at the hospital, TMZ continued. Doctors are hopeful his recovery will go well, and he could be released by Friday, according to the outlet.

Kattan may be well enough to return to work sometime in the near future, although it is not entirely clear when that will be, according to TMZ. (RELATED: World Famous Singer Céline Dion Reveals Serious Medical Condition, Cancels Several Shows)

Kattan’s girlfriend, Maria Libri, posted a message to Instagram updating fans on his condition. “This sweet, sweet man of mine is on the road to recovery, after a severe pneumonia scare ❤️❤️❤️ He is always taking care of us, now it’s our turn to take care of him💞❤️” she wrote.

Kattan previously had a show scheduled for Friday in Valparaiso, Indiana, but that has since been postponed, according to TMZ. The show is reportedly being rescheduled.

Upcoming tour dates are likely to be affected, the outlet continued.

If he is still in the hospital he is almost guaranteed he will
contract COVID.

Seems like this serious strain of Strep is making the rounds for some reason.

Yeah, he contracted pneumonia because of the vaxx. The hospitals are going to get overwhelmed this winter, not because of COVID, but because of the immunity problems because of the vaxx.

Kattan seemed to always play roles on SNL that suggested he was gay. He was constantly ribbed by Norm MacDonald and David Spade.

Because of all of the people who got vaxxed, the hospitals will fill up. And because the bureaucrats don't know what to do about it, they will cajole more people into getting jabbed and force us to wear masks, even though the CDC has finally admitted that the masks don't work.

Our government at work.

There’s a saying that pneumonia is an old man’s best friend. My Dad, who had several debilitating and painful conditions, had three quick bouts of it in the span of two months and died peacefully.
But now a lot of young men are getting it, usually the more severe forms. Odd...

>Our government at work.

Not to mention that the Swedes proved the mRNA gets put into our DNA in the liver, and the vaxx is transferred through sexual contact, so we allowed big pharma to f**k up the human genome completely for countless generations. Everyone will be producing spike protein until we can get CRISPR to delete the segment.

He was probably my least favorite SNL player of that era, but probably better than any in the current cast. I say, “probably,” since I don’t watch anymore, but catch the occasional sketch on YouTube or if linked in FR.
