UFC President Dana White Says He Has Tested Positive for COVID-19

UFC president Dana White and his entire immediate family tested positive for COVID-19 after spending the Thanksgiving holiday together in Maine, he said on a new episode of "The Jim Rome Podcast."

White, who said on the podcast that he is vaccinated, mentioned he is already feeling better and that he wants to attend a UFC Fight Night event on Saturday in Las Vegas if he is able to test negative.

The 52-year-old also said that he consulted his friend, UFC commentator and podcaster Joe Rogan after he contracted the virus. Rogan has been accused of spreading COVID-19 misinformation throughout the pandemic.
