Al Roker went missing again. This comes after his health scare. Today Show fans expressed concern for the 68-year-old on social media. He’s been away from the morning show for almost a week.

This time around, Al didn’t share the reason behind his absence. During the third hour of Today, Dylan Dreyer filled in for his spot on the couch. The co-hosts gathered around to discuss the pop culture topics of the day. However, fans were more concerned about Al’s health and well-being. Read on to learn more.

Today Show host contracted COVID-19

In late September, Al Roker shared an Instagram video about his health. He advised fans that he contracted COVID-19. It was a breakthrough case since he just got the booster. Al praised the vaccination for helping him with the symptoms, which were subtle.

Some Today fans assumed he was away on vacation. They have been getting sick of the constant rotation of hosts on the talk show. However, Al made it clear that he wasn’t taking another trip. In fact, he’s been quarantined in his house since his diagnosis.

“The reason I haven’t been part of the Hurricane Ian coverage is I tested positive for COVID,” Al Roker shared in his Instagram video. “It’s not because I’m on vacation or something else is wrong.”

Fans were looking forward to seeing Al cover Hurricane Ian. While most missed him, they were looking forward to his return to the Today Show. Al assured fans when he was expected to return back to work. He made his return in a big way and has had many bizarre segments since then.

Al’s latest disappearance has fans caused once again. They noticed that he’s been absent for much of the week. The concerns grew on Thursday morning. None of his co-hosts shared a reason as to why he was missing.
