After the effect we have seen around the world, Coronavirus needs no introduction at all. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the Covid-19 outbreak a pandemic with more than 118,000 confirmed cases and 4,291 deaths in 114 countries. According to the reports in Economic Times, India’s count of infected people is 73 with no confirmed deaths so far from the disease. Much to our dismay and surprise, Tom Hanks recently took to social media and notified his fans that he is been tested positive with coronavirus along with his wife Rita.
This obviously came as a shock to his fans and now the next famous celebrity to become the prey of Covid-19 is Juventus star, Daniele Rugani. According to the reports in The Sun, he is the first player from the club to be confirmed as having tested positive for coronavirus.
Sharing the news on his Twitter handle, he wrote, “Avrete letto la notizia e per questo ci tengo a tranquillizzare tutti coloro che si stanno preoccupando per me, sto bene. Invito tutti a rispettare le regole, perché questo virus non fa distinzioni! Facciamolo per noi stessi, per i nostri cari e per chi ci circonda. #grazie” Which read - "You've read the news, so I want to reassure everyone who's worried about me, I'm fine. I urge everyone to respect the rules, because this virus makes no distinction! Let's do it for ourselves, for our loved ones and for those around us."
The portal reported that Juventus scrapped all training last month after their Under-23s played Pianese just days before three of their players and their manager were confirmed as being infected. The likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Aaron Ramsey currently play alongside Rugani. Serie A leaders Juventus revealed the news of Rugani's diagnosis in a statement and it is now said that the player is set to be quarantined.
