Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has said he and his family tested positive for the coronavirus but have made a full recovery.
Johnson, the world's top-paid actor, announced their diagnosis in an 11-plus minute video on Instagram on Wednesday.
The actor said he was shocked after hearing their positive tests. He called the ordeal “one of the most challenging and difficult things we’ve had ever to endure.”
Johnson said he along with his wife, Lauren Hashian, and two young daughters contracted the COVID-19 disease, but have now recovered.
He said his daughters “bounced back” after having sore throats for a couple of days. But for Johnson and his wife, he said they both had a “rough go.”
He urged his 196 million Instagram followers to wear masks and avoid "politicizing" the pandemic.
The coronavirus pandemic has brought Hollywood to a virtual standstill, with movie productions only recently re-starting in Los Angeles under strict conditions and with skeleton crews.
