SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Let me ask you this, because you were one of the first, if not the first Senator, I think, that publicly said you had contracted COVID-19. 

And I don't -- I never -- I don't believe I've ever asked you what treatment you received or took, if any, or therapeutics you might have used. If you feel like disclosing it, feel free. I believe in medical privacy. Senator, I really have no right to ask you that question, only if you want to share it. 

But more importantly, you have also steadfastly refused to be vaccinated. Now, you are backed up by the Cleveland Clinic, a pretty prestigious medical institution, that if you have natural antibodies -- T-cell antibodies -- even if your antibody levels go down, it would recognize coronavirus.
