Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson test positive for coronavirus

Tom Hanks and his actress-singer wife Rita Wilson have tested positive for the coronavirus, the actor said in a statement Wednesday.

Hanks said the couple were in Australia and felt tired, with colds, body aches and slight fevers.

``To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the coronavirus and were found to be positive,'' Hanks said.

The 63-year-old actor said they will be ``tested, observed and isolated for as long as public health and safety requires.''

``Not much more to it than a one-day-a-time approach, no?'' added Hanks.

Hanks, who also posted his message on social media, signed off saying: ``Take care of yourselves!''

Hanks and Wilson, 63, were married in 1988.
