Al Pacino Details COVID Near-Death Experience: “My Pulse Was Gone”


After surviving a life-threatening COVID infection in 2020, Al Pacino recently opened up about the near-death experience.

The Academy Award winner revealed his “pulse was gone” after he had a bad reaction to steroids while being treated for a life-threatening Coronavirus infection back in 2020. I had about six paramedics in that living room, and there were two doctors, and they had these outfits on that looked like they were from outer space or something. Pacino, who welcomed his youngest son Roman last year with producer Noor Alfallah, is known for his roles in The Godfather(1972), Dog Day Afternoon(1975), Cruising(1980), Scarface(1983), Glengarry Glen Ross(1992), Carlito’s Way(1993), Heat(1995), The Devil’s Advocate(1997), The Irishman(2019) and House of Gucci(2021).
