Hello folks. @ritawilson and I want to thank everyone here Down Under who are taking such good care of us. We have Covid-19 and are in isolation so we do not spread it to anyone else. There are those for whom it could lead to a very serious illness. We are taking it one-day-at-a-time. There are things we can all do to get through this by following the advice of experts and taking care of ourselves and each other, no? Remember, despite all the current events, there is no crying in baseball. Hanx

Recent news has it that the couple has since offered to donate their blood, to help possibly develop a vaccine for the virus.

He mentioned the news in a podcast recently and added that there were a lot of questions in regard to the process.

Also, the actor has a name ready for the vaccine if it works. It’ll be called Hank-ccine. #PunIntended.

Jokes aside, this is a really thoughtful decision, and we hope we get good news soon. Until then, let’s stay home and stay safe.
