Dez Fafara provides a health report after his medical incident in August

Dez Fafara, the vocalist for DevilDriver and Coal Chamber, has released the health update below. Fafara postponed Coal Chamber‘s scheduled tour in August of last year after an ambulance took him to the hospital due to a concerning health incident. In recent years, Fafara’s health issues have gained greater attention because he experienced “a near-death experience” with COVID-19, which left him with persistent difficulties.
