Within a month after Jamie Foxx’s health scare, the vampire-slayer dad in Netflix’s Day Shift made his first statement allaying fans’ worries. Many wondered what could have happened to the Oscar winning actor that he was suddenly brought to the hospital during the last days of filming for Back in Action.
Even though he was taken to the hospital via private vehicle and not by an ambulance, the urgency of medical attention was still most concerning.
Likewise, despite the fact that the medical issue did not take place while Foxx was shooting, people still wondered if the actor was getting too stressed with his seemingly jam-packed commitments.
Almost immediately after his hospitalization, his daughter Corrine recently shared the family statement:
We wanted to share that my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday. Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time.
The health incident stopped the shoot for Back in Action last April 12th. The next day

While there is no noted reply from Foxx in any of the 48.6K and still growing comments, overwhelming appreciation of his progress is prevalent.
In other discussions online, fans and followers of the actor wonder what ‘medical complications’ actually mean. While people would immediately assume a specific ailment, some health professionals and PR specialists say the words were a strategic phrase they selected to honor the actor’s medical privacy and above all, insurance concerns.
On the other hand, some comments on Foxx’s latest instagram post are asking if it’s truly him who’s posted the update.
