Believe it or not, it’s been nearly a full four months since this all began.
The Covid-19 coronavirus has been dominating the news cycle ever since its appearance in Wuhan, China back in January and has now infected nearly 2 million people worldwide and killed over 120,000. Most governments have placed strict bans on travel and socialization, with many countries going so far as to place full lockdowns on citizens.
The United States is now the epicenter of the pandemic with almost 600,000 cases and 24,000 deaths, including some high-profile fatalities such as beloved singer-songwriter John Pine, dialect coach and Star Wars actor Andrew Jack, and Fountains of Wayne singer Adam Schlesinger.
But in early March, well before the virus began tearing through the United States with such force, celebrity couple Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson were among the first to announce that they had tested positive for Covid-19 and were under quarantine.
