Salma Hayek, Nick Cannon and Jessica Simpson among celebrities directly impacted by the coronavirus

Since Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson revealed in April 2020 that they tested positive for the virus that’s been declared a global pandemic, other celebrities have explained how they're being affected by it, too.

Here's the latest, which we’ll update regularly:

Salma Hayek

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

For much of the pandemic, the Frida star seriously struggled with the coronavirus, she revealed in the May 17 edition of Variety. "My doctor begged me to go to the hospital because it was so bad," she explained. "I said, 'No, thank you. I'd rather die at home.'" Hayek spent weeks isolated in her bedroom at her London home, and at one point she was placed on oxygen. In fact, she continues to have lower energy levels than she did before she was sick.

Ted Nugent

Status: Recovering after testing positive for COVID-19

The rocker previously called the pandemic a "scam," but he revealed April 19 that he had tested positive for it. And the effects were awful. "I have had flu symptoms for the last 10 days and I just... I thought I was dying," Nugent said on Facebook. "Just a clusterf***." It was really bad: "I literally could hardly crawl out of bed the last few days, but I did. I crawled."

Luke Bryan

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

The country singer announced April 12 that he would not be part of that night's live edition of American Idol. (Paula Abdul, one of the show's original judges, stepped in to take his place alongside Katy Perry and Lionel Richie.) "I'm doing well and look forward to being back at it soon," Bryan said at the time. He also dropped out of the 2021 Academy of Country Music Awards, where he was scheduled to perform on April 18.

Jessica Simpson

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

On March 29, Simpson announced that she would release a new essay, Take the Lead, through Amazon one month later. She said it was about overcoming fear, which she had done in the past 12 months. “I started writing this essay on the same day I received a positive test result for COVID-19,” Simpson wrote. “I decided instead of being driven by fear, I would manifest a hopeful conversation with you.”

Sandra Lee

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

“Personally I had Covid! Now do not have Covid!” the celebrity chef revealed March 29. “I do have the antibodies. The night I realized I had it the inside of my body felt like a pinball machine had gone off, With the metal ball pinging-all over the place — such an odd feeling — from my lower stomach up right through my heart — and back again....over and over!” Lee described additional symptoms, including exhaustion and a massive headache. She’s also helped her aunt and uncle through their diagnoses; the latter of whom was hospitalized for a time, then suffered further complications. He’d been relocated to a rehab facility.

Lauren Alaina

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

On March 20, the singer had to cancel a concert in Lexington, Ky., after receiving a positive test. “I am resting up and trying to feel a bit better,” she wrote on social media. “Some people have it way worse than me — I just have a little bit of shortness of breath, a really bad headache, no taste or smell, pretty bad congestion and I feel pretty tired.”

Trisha Yearwood

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

Yearwood’s husband, Garth Brooks, revealed Feb. 24 that the “Walkaway Joe” singer had tested positive, after a member of their team fell ill. “The Queen and I have now tested twice,” Brooks told Yahoo Entertainment in a statement. “Officially, she’s diagnosed as ‘on her way out of the tunnel’ now, though, which I’m extremely thankful for.” His rep said that Yearwood was experiencing symptoms, but she was doing OK. Two weeks earlier, the couple canceled scheduled events and began isolating themselves at home.

Cloris Leachman

Status: Died of a stroke, although COVID-19 was a contributing factor

The star of Mary Tyler Moore, The Last Picture Show and Malcolm in the Middle died Jan. 27 at the age of 94. Her death certificate, which California’s San Diego County released Feb. 18, stated that the cause was a stroke. However, a representative for the local medical examiner’s office said COVID-19 was a significant condition that contributed to Leachman’s death.

Gwyneth Paltrow

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

In a mid-February blog post, the Goop creator wrote about struggling with the coronavirus that lasted much longer than she expected. “I had COVID-19 early on,” she said, “and it left me with some long-tail fatigue and brain fog. In January, I had some tests done that showed really high levels of inflammation in my body.” The Oscar winner was working with a wellness expert on a “longer term detox” to help with the lingering effects, which also included dizziness, an increased heart rate and high levels of inflammation. Paltrow had undertaken a plan of intermittent fasting and restricting her diet when she was eating — a plan that experts advised against.

Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

On Valentine’s Day, the Jersey Shore star received roses and chocolates from her family, but they were left on her floor, because she was isolating herself after testing positive for COVID-19. “My family & I have been super cautious & careful, so this is super scary,” she noted. “My symptoms started out as just a bad sinus cold. Headache, Stuffy nose & mild cough. Then I felt super tired and ended up napping all day which made me go get tested.” Everyone else in Polizzi’s family had tested negative, she said.

Abigail Breslin’s father, Michael

Status: Died following a COVID-19 diagnosis

Breslin disclosed Feb. 10 that her dad had tested positive for COVID-19 and had been “placed on a ventilator.” Two days later, she said he was “not conscious.” The Little Miss Sunshine star reminded followers that COVID-19 is “unpredictable and relentless,” and she said her dad has been “careful and hasn’t left home since [the pandemic] began except for doctors appointments.” Then, on Feb. 27, she said that he had died. “It was COVID-19 that cut my sweet daddy’s life too short,” she wrote. “I miss you daddy. I can’t wait to see you again. I won’t ever, ever, ever forget you.”

Engelbert Humperdinck and his wife, Patricia Healey

Status: Tested positive for COVID-19, and she later died

The singer said Jan. 26 that he, Healey, their son and two of her caregivers had tested positive. (She had suffered from dementia for more than a decade.) On Feb. 5, he disclosed that she had died. “We love you beyond words, forever and always,” he said. “It is slipping now into the minutes of a full day without you. Goodnight my baby.”

Nick Cannon

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

The first few episodes of The Masked Singer’s fifth season — scheduled to air in March — will feature Niecy Nash as guest host, so Cannon can recover from the coronavirus, the production announced Feb. 3. He’s expected to return as soon as he’s well.

Michael Strahan

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

The NFL player-turned-Good Morning America co-host was missing from the Jan. 28 broadcast, which his colleagues attributed to a bout with COVID-19. On Feb. 3, Strahan himself popped up from quarantining at home to say he was feeling “a lot better.”

Shawn Johnson East

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

Just a few weeks after announcing that she’s pregnant with her second child, the Olympic gold medalist said she had tested positive for the coronavirus. Her symptoms were mild, but she said that her body was already exhausted from pregnancy. “So far, I have a cough, terrible sore throat and headache. Fatigue for sure but... that’s pregnancy haha,” the gymnast said in her Jan. 31 message. She noted that she was especially concerned because she’s had asthma for much of her life.

Nile Rodgers’s mother, Beverly Goodman

Status: Unable to be buried because of COVID-19

The Chic musician explained on the Jan. 29 episode of the Crisis What Crisis? podcast that he still hadn’t buried his mother, Beverly Goodman, who died on Dec. 27. Although her death was attributed to Alzheimer’s disease, Rodgers and his family couldn’t properly grieve Goodman because of COVID-19. “Today is the 26th, and I haven’t been able to make any funeral plans,” Rodgers said. “She’s in the back of a refrigerator truck. Talk about crisis. It’s horrible, breaking our hearts.”

Dave Chappelle

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

In the middle of a residency in Austin, Texas, a rep for the comedian announced his status. He’d already performed one show, but he canceled the others that had been scheduled. “Chappelle has safely conducted socially distanced shows in Ohio since June 2020 and he moved those shows to Austin during the winter,” the rep said Jan. 21 in a statement to TMZ. “Chappelle implemented COVID-19 protocols which included rapid testing for the audience and daily testing for himself and his team. His diligent testing enabled him to immediately respond by quarantining, thus mitigating the spread of the virus.” Chappelle, who was asymptomatic, began quarantining after receiving the news.

Liv Tyler

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

On Jan. 16, the actress said on Instagram that she was diagnosed with COVID-19 on New Year’s Eve. “Shit, I had made it all the way through 2020 keeping myself and my family safe,” she wrote. “Doing everything I could to protect my wolf pack and follow the rules to protect others. Suddenly on the [morning] of the last day of 2020... boom it took me down. It comes on fast, like a locomotive. Owchie.” Tyler said her family tested negative and she is on the mend. “I am so grateful to be through it and spent my days alone praying and beaming love to all who are effected and suffering from this,” she wrote. “Those who are working tirelessly to protect and care for others. Thank you.”

Jon Gosselin

Status: Recovering after being hospitalized with COVID-19

The reality star discussed his case on the Jan. 14 episode of The Dr. Oz Show. He described being rushed to the hospital with a fever of almost 105 degrees. “Once they evaluated me and once they drew my blood and did all my blood work, all of a sudden I’m getting antibiotics, steroids and a plasma antibody transfusion for COVID. It happened really fast,” he said. Gosselin recounted that he was so sick that he didn’t realize what was happening for several days. He was feeling much better by the time of his TV appearance.

Grimes

Status: Unclear

The singer shared in her Jan. 8 Instagram Stories, “Finally got COVID but weirdly enjoying the DayQuil fever dream. 2021.” Grimes, who welcomed a baby in May with Tesla CEO Elon Musk didn’t share more details. (In November, Musk tweeted that he might have “a moderate case of covid” after receiving conflicting test results).

Sunny Hostin’s in-laws

Status: Died of COVID-19

The View co-host said on the Jan. 8 show that her husband, surgeon Emmanuel Hostin, had given her permission to share his upsetting story, because it could help others. “Manny lost both of his parents over the holidays,” she said. “He lost his father on Dec. 28 and he lost his mother on New Year’s Day, both to COVID.” Both parents were physicians. They “didn’t celebrate Thanksgiving with us,” she explained, “because we all decided that it wasn’t safe. And after a lot of contact tracing, we still don’t know how they contracted this virus and this disease.” She added that the family communicated over FaceTime “while they were passing away.”

Jessie Cave’s son

Status: Recovering after testing positive for COVID-19

On Jan. 5, The Harry Potter actress shared the heartbreaking news that the baby boy she welcomed Oct. 21 was sick with COVID-19. “He’s okay and doing well but they are being vigilant and cautious, thankfully,” she captioned a photo of him lying in a hospital bed. “This strain is super powerful and contagious so I do hope that people take extra care in the coming weeks. Really didn’t want this to be the start of my families [sic] new year. Really didn’t want to be back in a hospital so soon after his traumatic birth.”

Larry King

Status: Died of an unrelated infection after being hospitalized with COVID-19

The prolific broadcaster had spent 10 days in the hospital by the time his condition was reported on Jan. 3. A source close to the family told NBC News then that King had just been moved out of the intensive care unit, although he remained hospitalized. Then, on Jan. 23, he died at the age of 87 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. However, his estranged wife, Shawn King, later told Entertainment Tonight that he had recovered from COVID-19. “Once we heard the word COVID, all of our hearts just sunk. But he beat it. He beat it,” she said. “It did take its toll and then the unrelated infection finally is what took him, but, boy, he was not gonna go down easily.”

Chloe Bennet

Status: Recovering from COVID-19

The Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. actress said Dec. 31 that she and several members of her family were sick with COVID-19. She woke up Christmas morning with “a high fever, and unable to breathe.” In an Instagram Story, Bennet said she got “VERY sick.” She continued, “And I’m one of the lucky ones. I repeat! I’m young, healthy, and diligent about my health and this virus still knocked me the f— down and continues to do so.”

Louis Gossett Jr.

Status: Recovering after testing positive for COVID-19

TMZ reported Dec. 31 that the Oscar winner had been hospitalized with the coronavirus, after he “tested positive and was so sick he couldn’t even stand.” However, he left after two days, because “the wave of deaths freaked him out,” even though doctors “begged him to stay.” The octogenarian is a cancer survivor. The star of Roots and An Officer and a Gentleman issued a statement: “Please wear masks, social distance, isolate, pray and listen within. We cannot survive without one another.”

D’Andra Simmons

Status: Recovered after being hospitalized for COVID-19

After the Real Housewives of Dallas star tested positive for COVID-19 and needed oxygen in late December, she checked into the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

Dr. Drew

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

Celebrity doctor Drew Pinsky — aka Dr. Drew — shared a photo of himself “feeling better” in late December 2020. After that, he continued to share regular updates on his progress. His diagnosis came after he publicly downplayed the severity of the virus and called the pandemic “press induced panic.” In April, the Masked Singer alum admitted, “My early comments about equating coronavirus with influenza were wrong. They were incorrect. I was part of a chorus that was saying that. And we were wrong. And I want to apologize for that.”

Kaitlyn Bristowe and Jason Tartick

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

“We have Covid,” Bristowe announced Dec. 24. “Jason and I had been trying to quarantine before seeing family. We thought we were making a responsible decision to have ONE person over, who had been tested daily for work. Negative tests 4 days in a row. The day we saw her, she became positive which we all found out the next day. Now, like many, we will spend Christmas by ourselves." They did the same for New Year’s, when they chugged shots of NyQuil.

Status: Recovered after being hospitalized with COVID-19

“I wanted to share I’ve tested positive for COVID-19,” The Talk host said Dec. 14. “After a brief hospitalization, I’m now recuperating at a location away from Ozzy (who has tested negative) while The Talk is on scheduled hiatus,” Osbourne shared. “Everyone please stay safe and healthy.” Osbourne’s news came less than a week after one of her co-hosts, Carrie Ann Inaba, missed the show, because she had tested positive. Osbourne had worked from her home rather than the studio as a precautionary measure.

Ashanti

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

The singer dropped the news of her diagnosis Dec. 12, just as she was scheduled to face off against Keyshia Cole on Verzuz. “It’s very, very crazy,” she said in a video post. “Never in a million years did I think I would get COVID.” Although Ashanti said she wanted to perform as scheduled — she was “not in any pain” — the show was rescheduled for Jan. 9, 2021.

Charley Pride

Status: Died of complications from COVID-19

The country music legend — the first Black country superstar and first Black member of the Country Music Hall of Fame — died on Dec. 12. A statement posted to his Facebook page said he was “admitted to the hospital in late November with COVID-19 type symptoms and despite the incredible efforts, skill and care of his medical team over the past several weeks, he was unable to overcome the virus.” He was 86.

Nancy Grace and her family

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

On Dec. 11, the Fox Nation television personality revealed that she and her entire family had tested positive for COVID-19. “COVID is no joke, we thought we had done everything right. Please keep wearing masks, social distancing and stay safe – no family should go through this,” Grace told the Daily Mail. She is coughing with “flu-like symptoms,” husband David Finch has “severe” headaches and their 13-year-old twins have mild sore throats and headaches.

Carrie Ann Inaba

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

Inaba was missing from the table on the Dec. 10 episode of CBS’s The Talk. As her co-host Sheryl Underwood explained to viewers, Inaba was quarantining at home after a positive test. The Dancing With the Stars judge herself shared on social media that she had “a fever and bad cough and lots of aches and pains.” She said she’d contracted the coronavirus even though she’d followed protocols to avoid that, and she warned others to stay vigilant about wearing a mask and washing their hands. “You don’t want this,” she warned.

Stephanie Ruhle

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

The MSNBC anchor revealed her diagnosis after a two-week medical break from the news desk. “We have a virus that is ravaging our country, and we need to do a whole lot more to stop it,” Ruhle said at the top of her first broadcast back on Dec. 7. “And as a person who is sick and scared, I am begging you, please take this seriously. It is not over.” Ruhle used her monologue to criticize the country’s muddled system for handling the virus, and noted that she had privilege a lot of people do not. “The only way that we can get through this is to have a system that works for everyone, and after having [COVID-19], I know now — more than ever — we absolutely do not,” she said.

Gloria Estefan

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

The singer said Dec. 2 that, after encountering a fan without a mask, she ended up with the coronavirus in November. That’s the only time she thinks it could have happened, since she’s been very careful to stay home and wear a mask, she explained on social media. She added that the fan, who wasn’t wearing a mask, had surprised her by tapping her on the shoulder: “I even held my breath through their talk, but something must have happened there.” Her symptoms were a loss of taste and smell, a cough and dehydration.

Kathy Hilton, Kyle Richards and Dorit Kemsley

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars were part of an outbreak on the production, TMZ reported Dec. 2.

Rosie Perez

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

Terrifying is the word the Flight Attendant actress used to describe her coronavirus experience. Perez revealed in an interview with Uproxx published Nov. 30 that she’d caught the virus on a December flight to Bangkok, where her HBO Max series was filming. “And at that time,” Perez said, “they were saying ‘It’s a new respiratory tract infection. It’s a virus that's going around. We don’t really know what it is and what it does, but it attacks the respiratory system first and then travels to other parts of your body.’” She still hasn’t forgotten what a doctor told her about the importance of wearing a mask.

Bad Bunny

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

The “Dákiti” singer — whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio — did not perform as scheduled at the American Music Awards on Nov. 22. He explained to fans the next day that the reason was that he’d tested positive for the coronavirus, but he felt well enough to perform virtually on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon just five days later. By Dec. 2, he told James Corden on his Late Late Show that he “felt perfect” and had since tested negative.

Sadie Robertson

Status: Recovered after being hospitalized with COVID-19

I’ve definitely struggled through this one! Thankfully baby Huff is doing great and healthy, and I am now healing as well,” she said. Robertson, who’s pregnant, told Yahoo Entertainment in December that the coronavirus had spread “like wildfire” in her family. “I actually was the last one to get it in the family,” she said, noting that she went to the hospital twice for fluids. “My sister got it, then my parents, then [her husband] Christian and I both got it. But then it ended with us. We did not spread it, thankfully. It definitely caught like wildfire for a minute there but we stopped it.”

Rachael Maddow’s partner, Susan Mikula

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

At the top of the Nov. 19 episode of her show, the MSNBC host explained that her partner of more than 20 years was recovering from a bout with the coronavirus. “My relationship with Susan is the only thing, at the end of the day, that I would kill or die for without hesitation,” Maddow said in her first show since Nov. 6. “And Susan has been sick with COVID these past couple of weeks. At one point, we really thought that there was a possibility that it might kill her, and that’s why I’ve been away.”

Jeremih

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

The singer and rapper was hospitalized with COVID-19 on Nov. 14. Five days later, his agent confirmed that he was “still in ICU in critical condition” but had been “pulled off the ventilator.” Jeremih, whose real name is Jeremy Phillip Felton, was undergoing treatment in Chicago. He was discharged from the hospital Dec. 5 and faced a harrowing recovery. “I had to learn how to walk again, eat, all that stuff,” he said on the Dec. 15 edition of Sway in the Morning.

Meghan King and Jim Edmonds

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

King, a former cast member of The Real Housewives of Orange County, shared Nov. 15 that her three young children would be staying with her parents after her positive test results.

Meanwhile, Edmonds’s adult daughter Hayley criticized King for knowingly exposing her family to the virus.

Hugh Grant

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

The Undoing star told Stephen Colbert on the Nov. 10 episode of The Late Show With Stephen Colbert that he’d tested positive for COVID-19 antibodies. The same for his wife, Anna Eberstein. He believed they had contracted the virus in February. “My eyeballs felt about three sizes too big, and [I had] a feeling as though some enormous man was sitting on my chest,” Grant said. “I thought, ‘I don’t know what this is’ And then I was walking down a street one day, and I thought, ‘I can’t smell a damn thing.’” He added that he had also broken out into terrible sweats during the same time.

Richard Schiff and Sheila Kelley

Status: Recovered after testing positive

The former West Wing actor disclosed Nov. 10 that he’d been struck down by the coronavirus, and he wasn’t the only one in his household. “On Election Day I tested positive for Covid-19. This has been the most bizarre week of our lives. @thesheilakelley is also positive,” he said of his actress wife via Twitter. “This is tough. We are determined to find a way to health again. We root for everyone out there who are struggling with this thing. Love from here.” Schiff was hospitalized the following week and treated with oxygen and medication. On Nov. 16, he tweeted that Kelley was “home and doing better but still fairly ill.” He was released from the hospital on Nov. 19.

Tyler Hubbard

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

The Florida Georgia Line singer was the second scheduled performer for the 2020 CMAs who had to cancel because of the coronavirus. He revealed his diagnosis Nov. 9. The Country Music Association issued a statement about him and Brice having to miss the event: “As you may have heard, unfortunately Lee Brice and Tyler Hubbard both tested positive for COVID-19 and are unable to join us for the CMA Awards on Wednesday night. Although this is incredibly disappointing, not only for the show but also for CMA personally as we care deeply for these artists and only want the best for them and their families, it does reassure us that our protocols are working. Our process enabled us to manage each situation immediately and before either artist ever entered our set. Most importantly, it prevented anyone else from being exposed.”

Charlie Hunnam

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

Early on in the pandemic, before it was widely known that loss of taste and smell were symptoms of the coronavirus, the former Sons of Anarchy star and his girlfriend, Morgana McNeils, came down with it. Hunnam explained during a virtual interview Nov. 6 on Jimmy Kimmel Live! that he started to think something was up when the two couldn’t smell their coffee one morning. He thought they were “simultaneously having a stroke.” Eventually, Hunnam was able to manage his symptoms. “I just lost my sense of taste and smell for about 10 days and had a little bit of fatigue,” he said, explaining that he was again feeling unwell by the time of the interview. He suspected the culprit then was something other than COVID-19. “This feels very, very different. This feels much more like flu.”

Vanessa Williams

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

The Ugly Betty actress described her bout with the coronavirus on the Oct. 30 episode of The Dr. Oz Show. She had suspected it was coming because one of her castmates in the London stage production of “City of Angels” came down with the virus back in the spring, and it began to “circle through us as a cast.” Williams said she returned home and quarantined for 14 days, and she experienced minimal symptoms, including aches and pains, headaches, gastrointestinal issues and a dry cough. She said she felt fine overall, but she continued to hear “a little bit of a sound” when she took a breath.

Khloé Kardashian

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

“Just found out that I do have corona,” Kardashian said in a clip, released Oct. 28, from an upcoming episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. “I have been in my room. It’s gonna be fine, but it was really bad for a couple days.” As for symptoms, she described headaches unlike her usual migraines, as well as coughing, vomiting and flashes of hot and cold. However, she appeared to have recovered by the time the footage came out.

Stephen Amell

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

The former Arrow star knew it was important for him to avoid the coronavirus, because losing him to quarantine would hinder the show in which he stars, Heels. So he wore a mask and avoided crowds, but he ended up with COVID-19 anyway. Amell said the first couple of days with it “just sucked” physically, but it also presented a mental health struggle. “I’ve never worried about the lethal aspect of it because the numbers suggest that I will get it, and maybe I’ll be asymptomatic or maybe my symptoms will be light, and I will come out the other side and I will be OK, which is what happened,” the 39-year-old former Arrow star said on the Oct. 27 episode of podcast Inside of You. “My anxiety came from the idea that I would be letting hundreds of people down.”

Trey Songz

Status: Recovered after testing positive for COVID-19

On Oct. 5, the singer announced on Instagram that he had contracted the coronavirus. “I’ve taken many tests as I’ve been out protesting, food drives, of course I have a very young son at home, so I get tested periodically and this time unfortunately it came back positive,” said Songz, whose real name is Tremaine Neverson. “I will be taking it seriously, I will be self-quarantining. I will be in my house until I see a negative sign.” Within a couple of weeks, he was back out in the world, his mask firmly in place.

We love you all and please stay safe!”

Jim Parsons

Status: Recovered from COVID-19

During a Sept. 28 appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Parsons revealed that he and his husband, Todd Spiewak, had COVID-19 in March. “We didn’t know what it was. We thought we had colds, and then it seemed less likely, and then, finally, we lost our sense of smell and taste,” the former Big Bang Theory star said. “It defied the descriptions for me. I didn’t realize how, completely, taste and smell could be gone. And when you’re in quarantine, and there is really nothing to do but eat — oh my God that was brutal.” Both have since recovered.

The Devo frontman had a terrifying experience with the virus in June, he told the Los Angeles Times in August. It began with fatigue. When he registered a fever of 103, his wife insisted he consult a nurse, who told him to go to the hospital. While Mothersbaugh initially scoffed at the idea, he eventually spent two weeks at Cedars-Sinai in L.A. He had delusions throughout his stay, imagining that someone had physically attacked him, and he had to be strapped to his bed after he attempted to escape. Making matters worse, Mothersbaugh couldn’t physically see his family or friends. What got him through, he said, is video chat. “If you have anyone that you know who’s in ICU with COVID, contact them and keep them in touch with the outside world, because it’s easy to lose track of where you are and why you are,” Motherbaugh said. “I had no idea I was on a ventilator for 10 days. Time meant nothing.”
