Lorenzo Bevilaqua/Disney General Entertainment Content/Getty The View: I Was in the Audience When Sunny and Ana Tested Positive for COVID — Here's How It Unfolded It's far from the first time The View has been down a host due to the illness. In September 2021, chaos struck the show when two co-hosts — Sunny Hostin and guest co-host Ana Navarrro-Cárdenas — tested positive for COVID during a live taping. Both women were removed from the set as the in-person audience gasped audibly. Behar addressed the audience: "Since this is going to be a major news story any minute now, what happened is that Sunny and Ana apparently tested positive for COVID. No matter how hard we try, these things happen. They probably had a breakthrough case and they'll be okay, I'm sure, because they're both vaccinated." Both Hostin and Navarro-Cárdenas then produced negative rapid test results, proving the initial positive results to be false.

She checked in with The View digitally during her quarantine and described her mild symptoms. "It was a shock because you know, I'm triple-vaxxed, haven't been anywhere, haven't done anything, but that's the thing about the Omicron," said the EGOT winner. "You just don't know where it is. You don't know where it is, who's got it, who's passing it. So you know, it's one of those things where you think 'I've done everything I was supposed to do.'"
