Astrophysicist-slash-astrophysical-guitar-god Brian May posted this alarming photo on his Instagram last week:
The Virus didn't get me yet – thank God […] I managed to rip my Gluteus Maximus to shreds in a moment of over-enthusiastic gardening. So suddenly I find myself in a hospital getting scanned to find out exactly how much I've actually damaged myself. Turns out I did a thorough job – this is a couple of days ago – and I won't be able to walk for a while … or sleep, without a lot of assistance, because the pain is relentless.
So don't worry; at least he doesn't have the coronavirus. And he seems to be recuperating well enough that he might continue blowing our minds with science and guitar solos.
