Rachel Maddow returned to screens tonight with an emotional speech about how her partner Susan Mikula almost died from COVID-19.

The MSNBC anchor has been off the air for the past two weeks since disclosing she had been in close contact with someone who tested positive for coronavirus. On Thursday she revealed that person was indeed Mikula.

'If you know anything about me off of TV, if you know me personally, then you know the foremost thing about me is that I am in love,' she began. 'Susan and I have been together for over 21 years. It was love at first sight. That has never waned. She is the center of my universe.'

She recalled: 'At one point, we really thought there was a possibility that it might kill her, and that's why I've been away.'

'And the bottom line is she's gonna be fine. She's recovering—she's still sick, but she's gonna be OK, and we're not scared any more like we were. But it really didn't feel like it was gonna be OK at the outset.'

Maddow: Don't get this thing. Do whatever you can to keep from getting it.

'Believe me: whatever you have calculated into your life as acceptable risk, as, y'know, inevitable risk, something that you're willing to go through in terms of this virus, because statistically, it'll probably be fine for you and your loved ones... I'm just here to tell you to recalibrate that,' she said. 'Frankly, the country needs to recalibrate that, because broadly speaking, there's no room for you in the hospital any more.'
