He's young and cute, he'll get attention for this, especially on the rag shows like Access and Extra.

He's an amazing actor, this really sucks for him. I hope his infection is acute and he can be treated and return to life as normal with his wife and new baby.
Maybe he'll be one of the guys who really takes a stand though. We can always hope.
