Update: No, Rammstein’s Till Lindemann Does *Not* Have the Coronavirus After All!
A story making the rounds earlier today, which originated with German website Bild, had Rammstein frontman Till Lindemann in an intensive care unit in Berlin with a high fever caused by the coronavirus.
As it turns out, only part of that is true: he was indeed admitted to an intensive care unit, and he was running quite a fever, but he in fact tested negative for the coronavirus.
Rammstein posted the following brief message on their social media pages just a few minutes ago with the clarification:
“Yesterday evening Till Lindemann was admitted to a hospital on the band’s doctor’s advice. He spent the night in intensive care but has been moved as he is feeling better.”
“Till has tested negative for the coronavirus.”
While Till is undoubtedly very relieved he doesn’t have COVID-19, he surely would thank all of his fans from the bottom of his pyro-filled heart for their outpouring of support anyway. We are certainly glad he is feeling better!
Rammstein’s upcoming tour dates are up in the air due to the coronavirus, but as of now are still planned to fire off later this spring and summer. Find them all below.
