Australian healthcare workers and cautioned about how serious the virus can beCoronavirus: latest updatesTom Hanks, the actor who has tested positive for Covid-19 while
shooting in Australia, has updated fans on the condition of himself and his wife, Rita Wilson.
He thanked the Australians “taking such good care of us” in a Gold Coast hospital and emphasised again that the couple were in self-isolation. Adopting a slightly more sober tone than in his post on Thursday announcing that he and Wilson, both 63, had tested positive for coronavirus, Hanks said: “There are those for whom it could lead to a very serious illness. We are taking it one day at a time.”
