HBO announced Friday "Real Time" host Bill Maher has contracted Wuhan coronavirus after being vaccinated for the disease.
>>"The Friday, May 14th taping of 'Real Time with Bill Maher' has been canceled. Bill tested positive during weekly staff PCR testing for COVID. He is fully vaccinated and as a result, is asymptomatic and feels fine. Real Time Production has taken every precaution following COVID and CDC guidelines. No other staff or crew members have tested positive at this time. The show will be rescheduled at a later date," the show released in a statement.
Maher says he's feeling fine but will miss the show for the first time in 28 years.
Wuhan coronavirus vaccines approved by the FDA, which include Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer and Moderna, all have varying efficacy rates for preventing contraction of the disease or severe cases of the illness after infection. Moderna and Pfizer's rates are above 94 percent and require two doses. Johnson & Johnson, which only requires one shot, is 85 percent effective. The FDA requires a 50 percent efficacy rate for approval.
