Jamie Foxx’s health has been the subject of media speculation for several months. The latest development making the rounds on social media is that a source close to the actor says Foxx started experiencing health complications after taking the Covid vaccine.
According to web portal MSN, AJ Benza, a journalist in Hollywood, shared that a source in the family said the 55-year-old was “partially paralysed and blind” following the vaccine shot.
The report said Foxx had been against taking the vaccine but was given no choice due to standard procedure on the set for the Netflix film “Back in Action”. The reports have also been widely circulating across social media.

“He didn’t want to get the shot. This was reported today by OK Magazine.”
