The ongoing coronavirus pandemic has tested the sanity of billions, perhaps not least former Oakland Athletics’s hitter Jose Canseco. Recently he baffled his Twitter followers with a genuine question of whether Bigfoot or UFO are able to catch COVID-19, implying that he had recently communicated with both non-human species.
Can Bigfoot or aliens get Coronavirus I need to know because I have had contact with them

This was not the first time Canseco has referred to aliens in his tweets, as he just suggested in January that “aliens have been trying to teach” humans “how to time travel” if they were willing to accept a change of body composition. He also earlier invited several people on a Bigfoot hunt and UFO excursion with him, so the baseball player’s followers were generally not surprised by his sudden revelation, and rather tried to encourage his inquiry into the matter.
“Bigfoot is notoriously good at social distancing, I wouldn't worry about it”, one of his followers wrote.
Jose you're supposed to keep 6 feet from ALL creatures even the nonexistent ones

Recently, Canseco made headlines with his dashing comments about another ex-baseball player, Alex Rodriguez, whom he accused of cheating on his girlfriend Jennifer Lopez, something the starring player has vehemently denied.
