Navarro sat out a joint tour between Jane’s Addiction and the Smashing Pumpkins in 2022 due to long COVID ; his place was filled by Queens of the Stone Age guitarist Troy Van Leeuwen for the duration of the tour. Navarro was again absent from Jane’s Addiction on their 2023 tour while still battling the effects of long COVID, and Josh Klinghoffer (who, coincidentally, was also a former member of the Red Hot Chili Peppers) played guitar in his place.
