Colton Underwood, 28, of “The Bachelor”, “Bachelor In Paradise”, and “The Bachelorette” just announced via his Instagram that he has tested positive for coronavirus.
Everyone needs to understand that this virus can infect anyone. I have heard so many people who don’t think it could possibly effect them or say it is “just a cold”, “only affects the weak”, “affects the elderly”, etc. So many people thinking they are somehow immune because not falling into the high risk category. He is in top physical shape, works out, only 28 years old, and no pre-existing medical conditions. This is serious. No one is immune. We must all be cautious at this time.
I am so glad that he used his large platform to share this with others to try educate people that this is a virus that no one is immune to.
I wish the best to Colton. I hope he makes a full recovery. Thoughts and prayers sent his way.
Please everyone heed the advice of the CDC, doctors, and experts with thorough handwashing, social distancing, quaratining yourselves, and only going out if it is an absolute necessity.
