The Oscar-winning Ghost actress and longtime head of The View table missed Tuesday's season 27 premiere after contracting COVID-19, cohost Joy Behar announced at the top of the episode.

"We're back. Thank you, this is the premiere show of our 27th year on the air. I was here for all of it, except for two, when they canned me. When they sacked my behind," the 80-year-old said. "As you can see, Whoopi is not here, she has COVID. Yes, it's back, it's back, but she's on the mend, she's on the tail end, and she'll probably be back this week. But, sorry she's not here, for those of you that were looking forward to seeing her."

It's starting again, she is probably drinking a cocktail and laughing.

Stop testing for “covid”

problem solved.

[HYPOCRACY]

If she really had it, it would be a death sentence for that fat bag o shite.

[Sacajaweau]

This is her 3rd Covid episode.

[AppyPappy]

Yet another mere coincidence

RE: she’s on the tail end

Any news item with Whoopi and tail end in the same line is gross.

Interesting set of high profile people “getting COVID” right now.

I guess that means panicking and locking down is fully justified. I mean, these people wouldn’t make a false claim just to further a political agenda, right?

[newfreep]

I thought The Spew was cancelled?

[Gaffer]

I say induce coma, forcibly intubate her and pump her full of Remdesivir. After two days, transfer her to a nursing home.

Jill Biden has Covid......there’s their signal for all the Rats to move the narrative forward. Even Fauci crawled out from under a rock.....

[dfwgator]

Yeah, right.

[rktman]

Darn the luck.

🔬🤔😵🚫😷💉💊🐎💩. 🖕

[GreyFriar]

I though “the view” was canceled last spring?

[cotton1706]

So she has a cold?

[cuban leaf]

I’ve only been tested for Covid twice in my life. Both while I was in the hospital a few months ago awaiting open heart surgery. Both were negative - apparently...

longtime head of The View

She longtime something but it ain't the head...more like the opposite

[cuban leaf]

Just put on hold for a few months. Kinda like public schools.

27 seasons of nothing. I doubt I’ve seen more than a couple of minutes of it.

and Land Whales everywhere are sad.....

I just saw a commercial saying ABC will continue to dumb down their dwindling audience with the left’s most beloved troglodytes— Goldberg, Behar, Hostin, Navarro, and the other 2 simpletons.
