The renowned Mexican singer and presenter Jorge “Coque” Muñiz, 65 years old, was hospitalized on Sunday, May 25, 2025, after presenting respiratory complications derived from a COVID-19 infection.
The artist is currently in medium therapy, under medical observation, and has canceled his scheduled presentations while he follows the indications of rest and isolation.
Diagnosis and hospitalization

On Saturday, May 24, Muñiz announced through his social networks that he had tested positive for COVID-19 and that, although he felt stable, he had to cancel his participation in the show “Encadenados” in Puebla.
However, the following day, his condition worsened, leading to his hospitalization.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), he shared a photograph from the hospital wearing an oxygen mask, accompanied by the message:
“And take it, with the news that I got COVID and we even went to the hospital. We will be one more day, but already in medium therapy. We could not be with my friends from Puebla yesterday,” he said.
Medium therapy is a hospital unit intended for patients who require constant monitoring but not intensive care.
Health history

This is not the first time that the son of legendary singer Marco Antonio Muñiz has faced health problems.
In June 2024, he was hospitalized for acute bronchopneumonia after a performance in Playa del Carmen.

Since then, he has been under medical supervision and has taken steps to improve his health.
