To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the coronavirus, and were found to be positive.”
He then added, “Well, now. What to do next? The medical officials have protocols that must be followed. We Hanks’ will be tested, observed, and isolated for as long as public health and safety require.
“Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no?”
Tom Hanks and Rita Wison, are currently on the Gold Coast where Hanks is playing the role of Colonel Tom Parker who groomed the singer to stardom in the 1950s.
