“We felt a bit tired, like we had colds, and some body aches. Rita had some chills that came and went. Slight fevers too.” he explained. “To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the Coronavirus, and we were found to be positive.”

Amidst the panic brought about by the COVID-19, Hanks urges everyone to follow through with the appropriate medical procedures and to take the battle against the pandemic one day at a time.

“Well now, what to do next? The Medical Officials have protocols that must be followed. We Hanks’ will be tested, observed, and isolated for as long as public health and safety requires. Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no?”

Here is his full post:

“Hello, folks. Rita and I are down here in Australia. We felt a bit tired, like we had colds, and some body aches. Rita had some chills that came and went. Slight fevers too. To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the Coronavirus, and were found to be positive.

Well, now. What to do next? The Medical Officials have protocols that must be followed. We Hanks’ will be tested, observed, and isolated for as long as public health and safety requires. Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no?

We’ll keep the world posted and updated.
