'DWTS' : How Cody Rigsby and Partner Cheryl Burke's Dance Was Judged After Her Breakthrough COVID

Instead of a live performance, the judges and the audience watched their taped rehearsal at theDWTSpractice studio which was filmed “last week before Burke’s positive COVID test” was known.

Ultimately, their salsa earned them a score of 24 out of 40.

“I’m feeling good. You know, the world hands you things and you just have to ride the wave and pivot, that’s what we did,” Rigbsy said, adding that he’s excited for week 3, which is themed after Britney Spears. “I can’t wait to slay,” he shared.

In an emotionalvideoshared on her Instagram Sunday, Burke said she chose to take a PCR test after feeling “run down” and “progressively worse” despite being “fully vaccinated” with Moderna.

“I feel so bad for Cody. I feel like I’m letting him down. I just feel like s—, to be quite honest. And it’s so overwhelming because it’s Sunday, and the show’s tomorrow,” said the former mirrorball champion, who will be in quarantine for 10 days.

“The competition ofDancing with the Starsmust go on. I will be competing. How is to be determined so stay tuned,” he continued.

Breakthrough cases— COVID-19 infections that occur in people who have been fully vaccinated against the virus — are rare, but possible and expected, as the vaccines are not 100 percent effective in preventing infections. Still, vaccinated people who test positive will likely be asymptomatic or experience a far milder illness than if they were not vaccinated. The majority of deaths from COVID-19 — around 98 to 99 percent —are in unvaccinated people.
