The Motown legend, 81, said that his battle with COVID-19 was “touch and go” and that he wasn’t sure he would ever sing again after the virus “took [his] voice” for a spell.
"I am a COVID survivor," Robinson said. "I got it severely and I was hospitalized for 11 days — and four or five of those I do not even remember. It really was touch and go and a terribly debilitating ailment."
The Grammy winner said he is nearly fully recovered but went on to explain that he ended up coming down with a cold around Christmastime and a first coronavirus test came back negative. Robinson said he began to feel worse and took a second test that confirmed a positive case and he moved into his guest house to mitigate the potential spread and risk to his wife.
