Celebrities With Coronavirus: Tom Hanks, Olga Kurylenko and More Stars Who Have Tested Positive for COVID-19

More than 174,000 people around the world have tested positive for the coronavirus, according to the latest figures from the Johns Hopkins University Monday.

The cases include Tom Hanks, the Oscar-winning star of Forrest Gump, his wife Rita Wilson, and most recently, Bond girl Olga Kurylenko.

The confirmed cases of COVID-19 come as governments around the world advise their citizens to practice social distancing, wash their hands regularly and practice good respiratory hygiene, for example, covering your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or a tissue when you cough or sneeze, and disposing of tissues as soon as possible.

As coronavirus continues to impact the global population, here are some of the celebrities who have revealed they have tested positive and what they've said about it.

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson

Oscar winner Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson revealed they have tested positive for COVID-19 last week. Hanks and Wilson are in Australia where the actor was in preproduction on a new Elvis Presley biopic directed by Baz Luhrmann.

Hanks said on Instagram: "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."

In an update a day later, the actor wrote: "Hello folks. @ritawilson and I want to thank everyone here Down Under who are taking such good care of us. We have Covid-19 and are in isolation so we do not spread it to anyone else. There are those for whom it could lead to a very serious illness. We are taking it one-day-at-a-time. There are things we can all do to get through this by following the advice of experts and taking care of ourselves and each other, no? Remember, despite all the current events, there is no crying in baseball."

Hanks' son Colin Hanks said the couple are "receiving excellent care in Australia" and "are doing well." He added that he is confident that Hanks and Wilson "will make a full recovery."
