Wearing a shirt emblazoned with the words “Over It”, Whoopi Goldberg zoomed into The View today with a brief update on her Covid quarantine and thoughts on how she contracted the Omicron virus.
Goldberg, who is expected back Monday as moderator on the ABC daytime talk show, told co-hosts Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Ana Navarro and guest co-host Yvette Nicole Brown that she missed the Dec. 15 and 16 episodes of The View after coming into contact with someone who had Covid. A subsequent test indicated that Goldberg herself had caught the virus.
Although the co-hosts currently are doing the show from their homes, the show provides camera crews. “They sent people to test me and it was like, We’re not sending [crews] to your house because you have Corona,” Goldberg said today. The show’s protocols, she said, may not be “convenient,” but “the truth is they’re really important.”
“While the vaccine doesn’t stop” Covid, she said, “it’s not happening at the same rate as it was happening when people were dying.” She added, “Unless everybody gets vaccinated this is what we’re going to be facing for the next little while.”
Goldberg said she’s feeling well, remains isolated within her home from other family members, and has passed the time listening to audiobooks and eating “good food.”
Co-host Sara Haines missed the second consecutive day of The View due to contact with Covid. Brown filled in for her again today.

So, during Monday’s episode, the women of “The View” had a slew of jokes ready to go.Among the changes to the characters that Carlson had problems with was the swapping of the green M&M’s go-go boots for more sensible sneakers and lowering the brown M&M’s stilettos to block heels.“M&Ms will not be satisfied until every last cartoon character is deeply unappealing and totally androgynous,” he said. “Until the moment you wouldn’t want to have a drink with any one of them. That’s the goal.

Joy Behar is pretty confused on how Senator Joe Manchin keeps getting elected. On Wednesday’s episode of “The View,” she questioned why his constituents continue to put up with him, since she feels it’s clear he “doesn’t give a hoot” about them or the country as a whole.To kick off the Hot Topics of the day, the panel of women began discussing the voting rights reform legislation that is set to be voted on this evening. The bill hinges on changes to the filibuster, which fellow democratic Senators Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema have openly said they would oppose.But at this point, Behar is surprised they’re even still being labeled Democrats, and can’t quite figure out why Manchin in particular keeps finding support amongst voters.“This is a guy who basically doesn’t want the poor people in his state to have a child tax credit, because he thinks they will use the money for drugs.

Ingraham clapped as she announced Mark Milley’s name.“The triple vaxxed Joint Chief chairman Mark Milley – our favorite, Mark Milley! – tested positive for COVID yesterday,” Ingraham said, clapping as she sarcastically referred to him as “our favorite.”Discussing the moment on “The View,” Joy Behar wasn’t necessarily surprised by Ingraham’s actions, but she was still upset.“This is the mind of Laura Ingraham and those that follow Laura Ingraham’s mind,” Behar started. “People say ‘Oh, I’m triple vaxxed,’ and then they get it anyway. This, they think, is so interesting and so fabulous a notion.” The host then went on to point out that those who have the vaccine are significantly less likely to be hospitalized or die because of the virus, which Ingraham and Arroyo did not note during their segment.“The fact is, you can still get it — people need to understand this — but if you don’t have a vaccine, you will probably end up in the hospital.
