The info as of Jan 6th from his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/ChristiaanVanVuuren\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube Page<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>On Wednesday the 9th December I was admitted into Sydney Hospital&#8230; It wasn&#8217;t just for my protection, but also for the protection of those around me&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I was eventually let out of hospital on the 2nd Jan, but then brought back in on the 18th Jan and diagnosed with a more serious form of TB&#8230; As a result, I have been back in quarantine since the 18th Jan, and all up now I have spent 55 days on the inside of a single room in hospital&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>That is a long ass time to be stuck in a room by yourself. I thought I felt isolated until I saw his story! Obviously, living in quarantine for months at a time can do your head in and instead of climbing the walls with boredom, he\u2019s put his time to good use by making rap videos. They are as funny as hell\u2026 especially his most recent.
