He said, “I tested positive for Covid for the 2nd time for the year.” “Currently, I’m having pretty slight symptoms — heaviness, some little amount of a headache, coughing — but that’s like night and day compared to while I had Covid previously this year, therefore it must have been the vaccination and resistance functioning.

A DWTS representative declined to answer questions beyond directing journalists to Bigsby’s footage.
Rigsby was supposed to have a replacement companion for the Oct. 4 show after Burke was obliging to confine this week. That is surely not going to happen anymore. Cody Rigsby and Burke were absent from the dancefloor on the Sept. 27 show, although they were still in the game. They were graded on their salsa training performances. Which received 24 out of a potential 40 marks.
Judge Len Goodman addressed Burke and Cody Rigsby, “I pray for you a really full and speedy recovery!. “That had a lot of glitz and glam, as well as a lot of dancing. It was well-crafted, and it was well-danced. You did an excellent job.”
“That was extremely, pretty outstanding for a practice,” judge Derek Hough remarked.
Burke said she had been properly vaccinated with the vaccination. And felt really bad about upsetting her dancing partner in such an Instagram clip posted Sunday Evening.
“All I hope is that I didn’t spread it.” Burke, 37, added. “And to those who don’t believe Covid is a genuine thing, man, it’s serious.”
