Jordan Peterson suffering with coronavirus and got worse after taking treatment drug
Professor Jordan Peterson is battling coronavirus after a nearly year-long battle with prescription drug addiction.
Mikhaila Peterson, 28, said that her dad caught coronavirus in a Serbian hospital whilst recovering for an over-reliance on the anti-anxiety drug Benzodiazepine.
"I don't know if that was necessary, because his symptoms weren't that bad -- he didn't have a cough, he had a mild fever, but they just put him on everything.
Mikhaila also said her father is suffering from pneumonia, the second time this year he has fought the illness.
"And so now we've had a step back in his recovery. Life is just not good, things are not good right now," she said.
"He'll get better, but he's definitely taken a step back and it's just really unfortunate... it's been a disaster."
