Absolutely awful news. Gutted for Mick, the band and everyone with tickets, especially those who had been travelling. When theres only two shows a week, this could end up being potentially a LONG wait between gigs
This could be an absolute tour wrecker. The next show in Berne will almost certainly be off and even the one in Milan in 8 days time must be in serious doubt as Mick will have to isolate for several days and travelling, even by private jet, is going to be an issue. Add to that the fact that even if he tests negative again in a few days, the effects on his voice could linger for a while. There have been online videos of Rod Stewart and Jon Bon Jovi performing in recent weeks and they've sounded horrendous - both of them have recently had covid.
Even Mick being in good health wont make him immune from its lingering effects. I'm sure a few of us here have first hand experience (I caught it in mid-January, only tested positive for a week but as I've a weakened immune system as I'm getting medical treatment as I had cancer in 2020, it absolutely pulverised me for weeks. I'm only getting over the cough five months later!)
At the age these guys are and with the health issues some of them have had, it goes without saying that everyone staying safe is essential.
Get well soon, Mick.
