Be careful what you protest for:

A TikTok comedian who shot to fame after he correctly predicted the daily Covid case numbers in NSW has joined his father fighting for life in hospital with the virus.

Jon-Bernard Kairouz, 24, is in a Covid-19 ward at St George Hospital in Kogarah, Sydney’s south, multiple sources told Daily Mail Australia.

His dad Richard Kairouz has also been battling the disease at the same facility since September 4, but sources say the gym owner has since been placed in an induced coma in ICU.

They won’t be the last to choke on irony. Hope they all pull through.
