Tom Hanks gives an update on his health after he and his wife tested positive to coronavirus

Tom Hanks has given an update on how he and his wife Rita Wilson are progressing after they were both diagnosed with the coronavirus few weeks ago.

The hollywood actor said they "feel better" and added that "this, too shall pass."

He also included a message about the "common sense" of sheltering in place (social distancing), stating that it means you don't give it to anyone and you don't get it from anyone.

He wrote: "Hey, folks. Two weeks after our first symptoms and we feel better. Sheltering in place works like this: You don't give it to anyone - You don't get it from anyone. Common sense, no? Going to take awhile, but if we take care of each other, help where we can, and give up some comforts... this, too, shall pass. We can figure this out."
