Some type of Lymphoma that is being managed, he said in the video. Does anybody have any other info about this?

The audio is really terrible, but he says that the cancer is being managed and that he will be around for many more years. I am glad to hear that.

Before that, he talks about covid and long covid. But I couldn't tell if he says that he has long covid now. I know that he was being pretty careful to avoid covid, to the extent that's possible while travelling on planes as much as he does. I had some discussions with him about N95 mask fitting and testing.

Can anyone tell from the video if he still has the big beard? That interferes badly with mask seals. I never had such a bushy beard myself, but before the pandemic I was lax about shaving and often had some beard growth. I keep it clean now so that masks will work better,

Anyway, I hope he beats the cancer and stays healthy and active.
