Umm 4 hours ago, hakutaku said: For the poor shepherd, the best I can do is to hope he survives to steer his flock back to the right path. Also: his role as bishop is to guide people. He is out there telling people the vaccines are an evil tool of the devil. This is a core aspect of his duties.

Ash Wednesday Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 I will keep Cardinal Burke in my prayers. From here on out, this thread should just be kept specific to news updates and prayers for Cardinal Burke, anything else is going to take this off topic. If people want to debate the underlying issues and conflicting opinions on the pandemic and the vaccines, there are plenty of threads for it.

Ash Wednesday Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 More info on guidance regarding the most trustworthy sources for news and an update below: Quote To provide a secure source for updates about the Cardinal’s health, the family has asked that the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe—in addition to the Cardinal’s personal media—be the only authorized platforms for accurate, timely information. Other reports may be incomplete or false and so may unnecessarily disturb the minds and hearts of those devoted to His Eminence. https://guadalupeshrine.org/cardinalburkenews/?fbclid=IwAR3vMktUzBNJkuh7mxUPriviS6ywbZY4ZRPKQLWRBsbFmFAi5XS90lqT9_o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraceUk Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I don't agree with the Cardinals views on the vaccine. A lot of people were worried about the vaccine and side effects. I still think people should be vaccinated. I hope he makes a good recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luigi Posted August 21, 2021 Author Share Posted August 21, 2021 The Associated Press reports today (21 Aug) that Cardinal Burke is off the ventilator and out of Intensive Care; he's still hospitalized, but in a regular room. In similar news, the president of a local Catholic boys' school, a Marianist priest, died yesterday of Covid although he had been vaccinated. He was 79 years old; he may have had other medical conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Wednesday Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 From the Guadalupe Shrine: Praised be Jesus Christ! Cardinal Burke’s family is pleased to announce that His Eminence has come off the ventilator and will leave the ICU today to return to his hospital room. His sister spoke with him on the phone this morning, and His Eminence expressed his deep gratitude for the many prayers offered on his behalf. https://guadalupeshrine.org/cardinalburkehealthnews2/ That's a very positive step forward. Recovery from Covid can and will likely be a very long road. Continued prayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Wednesday Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 My browser is barking at me about his website not being secure, but Cardinal Burke did write a letter expressing gratitude from his website, cardinalburke dot com, there is a link to it from his twitter. I'm not going to post the link at the moment because I'm not sure what's going on and whether or not someone might have tried to meddle with his website, or if that's just an issue on my end. Quote I express my deepest gratitude to God, to the healthcare professionals who are caring for me, to the staff of the @GuadalupeShrine to my brother bishops and priests, and to all those who have remembered me in their prayers. So all in all it sounds like he's on the mend and is beginning a rehabilitation process.
