After revealing she tested positive for COVID-19, Pink stated she's donating $1 million to health care workers on front lines and to aid testing, which is still limited
The superstar singer recounts her experience with coronavirus and calls out the government for the"failure" of limited testing, calling it an"absolute travesty."
"Two weeks ago my three-year-old son, Jameson, and I were showing symptoms of COVID-19. Fortunately, our primary care physician had access to tests and I tested positive," she wrote in a post that went up on both Twitter and Instagram early Friday evening. "My family was already sheltering at home and 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.
Pink called testing an "absolute travesty," adding that it is a "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.
