LOS ANGELES: American television host Andy Cohen joins the long list of celebrities like Tom Hanks, Kristofer Hivju and many others as he tested positive for the COVID-19 pandemic.
In an Instagram post, Cohen announced on Friday that after being self-quarantined and having symptoms, the test results came out to be positive. He wrote, "After a few days of self-quarantine, and not feeling great, I have tested positive for Coronavirus.

He further went on and concluded the post thanking all the professionals, "I want to thank all the medical professionals who are working tirelessly for all of us, and urge everybody to stay home and take care of themselves."
