The star does not hide from fans its state of health.

Hollywood actor Tom Hanks, who, along with his wife Rita Wilson, fell ill with the coronavirus, is actively sharing his health status with fans.

So, on an Instagram page, the actor and his lover posted a selfie taken during isolation of spouses in Australia. In the picture, both are smiling and looking calm.

“Rita and I want to thank everyone who cares for us. We are infected with Covid-19, we are in isolation, so we cannot infect anyone else. There are those who can lead to a very serious illness. We take everything as it is “There are things that we can do to get through this, following the advice of experts and taking care of each other, yes? Remember that despite all the current events, they don’t cry in baseball,” Hanks wrote under the image with his wife.

Note, the other day it became known that American actor Tom Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson fell ill with a coronavirus infection. The star of the film “Green Mile” reported this personally in social networks. Spouses are now in Australia for examination and isolation.

Recall, the outbreak of the virus began with a seafood and animal market in the Chinese city of Wuhan. It causes symptoms similar to colds, but quickly affects the lungs and other organs. The pathogen belongs to a large family of coronaviruses. The disease has spread to dozens of countries.

The World Health Organization has officially named the new killer coronavirus from China – COVID-19. In China itself, it used to be called NCP (Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia), which means pneumonia, which is caused by a new type of coronavirus. The first vaccine for this type of coronavirus will appear no earlier than a year and a half later.

The source of the outbreak of the coronavirus seems to be some kind of animal. At the same time, it is known that the virus can be transmitted from person to person by airborne droplets. There are suspicions that the disease can be transmitted even in the incubation period, when its carrier does not suspect that it is infected.

In Ukraine, March 3, Deputy Minister of Health Viktor Lyashko said that in Chernivtsi recorded the first case of infection with COVID-19. Infection was found in a man who returned from Italy.

Basic recommendations for avoiding coronavirus infection:

avoid contact with animals;
Do not eat raw or poorly processed meat;
avoid contact with people who have signs of the disease;
wash your hands regularly and thoroughly.
