Pink and 3-year-old son recovering after getting coronavirus… begs fans to ‘stay at home’

Pink has confirmed she and her son spent weeks in isolation after positive tests for Covid-19 but a few days ago they both tested negative for the deadly virus.

The 40-year-old singer – real name Alecia Beth Moore, said when she and 3-year-old Jameson started showing symptoms two weeks ago they were already sheltering in place.

She took to Instagram to share a sweet snap with her son with a lengthy caption in which she explained how she felt fortunate her doctor was able to get her and her son tested.

‘Two weeks ago my three-year old son, Jameson, and I are were showing symptoms of COVID-19.

Two weeks ago my three-year old son, Jameson, and I are were showing symptoms of COVID-19. Fortunately, our primary care physician had access to tests and I tested positive. My family was already sheltering at home and we continued to do so for the last two weeks following the instruction of our doctor. Just a few days ago we were re-tested and are now thankfully negative. It is an absolute travesty and failure of our government to not make testing more widely accessible. This illness is serious and real. People need to know that the illness affects the young and old, healthy and unhealthy, rich and poor, and we must make testing free and more widely accessible to protect our children, our families, our friends and our communities. In an effort to support the healthcare professionals who are battling on the frontlines every day, I am donating $500,000 to the Temple University Hospital Emergency Fund in Philadelphia in honor of my mother, Judy Moore, who worked there for 18 years in the Cardiomyopathy and Heart Transplant Center. Additionally, I am donating $500,000 to the City of Los Angeles Mayor’s Emergency COVID-19 Crisis Fund. THANK YOU to all of our healthcare professionals and everyone in the world who are working so hard to protect our loved ones. You are our heroes! These next two weeks are crucial: please stay home. Please. Stay. Home.❤️

The singer had no kind words for the government; ‘It is an absolute travesty and failure of our government to not make testing more widely accessible.
