MADISON - A Wisconsin lawmaker who has been hospitalized with COVID-19 for at least a week is now breathing through a ventilator.

Republican Sen. Andre Jacque of De Pere was intubated Monday, according to two people with knowledge of his condition.

The treatment typically requires patients to be sedated to allow them to breathe using a ventilator. It is typically considered a last-resort treatment but many patients recover, including a 73-year-old high-ranking Roman Catholic cardinal last week.

Jacque, 40, has been hospitalized with COVID-19-induced pneumonia for at least a week after contracting COVID-19 earlier this month. Since then, two of his colleagues have asked the public for prayers.

I can no longer pretend to have empathy for these people.

5. The big repug anti-vax covid conspiracy monger is reaping & sewing. Feel sorry for the nurses

taking care of him. Big patients are difficult, and it's easy for staff to hurt their backs trying to move all that weight.

7. Outspoken anti-mandator... unsure if vaxxed

“In recent months, Jacque has been one of most outspoken lawmakers against COVID-19 vaccine mandates and has authored legislation that would bar government officials or business owners from requiring Wisconsinites be vaccinated against COVID-19 or show proof of vaccination to access services“
