Tom Hanks says he feels the “blahs” but has no fever as he and wife Rita Wilson remain in isolation in an Australian residence, after being discharged from a hospital following their coronavirus diagnosis.
A representative for the Oscar winner confirmed on Tuesday that the pair were no longer hospitalised. Hanks himself said he was doing chores and getting beaten at cards by his wife as they remain self-quarantined.
“Hey folks. Good news: One week after testing positive, in self-isolation, the symptoms are much the same. No fever but the blahs. Folding the laundry and doing the dishes leads to a nap on the couch. Bad news: my wife has won six straight hands of gin rummy and now leads by 201 points,” he posted on social media on Tuesday evening.
Instead of a photo of himself or his wife, the post showed an old Corona typewriter that he travelled with “that I used to love”. The actor is pursuing a side career as a writer, publishing his debut short-story collection in 2017. “We are all in this together. Flatten the curve,” he added.
Hanks also referred to social media flurry that greeted a picture of toast spread with Vegemite that he posted a few days earlier. After fellow users pointed out he may have used too much, he wrote: “I have learned not to spread my Vegemite so thick.”
The couple arrived in Australia in late January on the Gold Coast, where an Elvis Presley biopic directed by Baz Luhrmann was to be shot. Hanks plays Presley’s manager, Colonel Tom Parker. The film, slated for release in October 2021, has suspended production, Warner Bros said. Wilson, a singer-songwriter, has performed in Brisbane and Sydney during the couple’s stay in Australia.

Uh oh...now everyone with the “blahs” is going to think they the corny virus.
I was thinking of calling it the commie flu ..as it seems to be attacking more commies than not.. Even in America.
ah ha ha..wait, you might be on to something.
There are plenty of people I’d rather not be isolated with. Rita Wilson isn’t one of them.
Doesn’t it return in some patients? Worse than before?
But how will his lungs fair?
don’t believe he was even sick.....a publicity left wing elitist...
I actually like it
In very small amounts it is not at all bad on toast. It is pure umami, that savory taste. Before you say it is terrible try adding a teaspoon to a stew while it is cooking. The stew will taste richer. Better. On its own it is nasty. Very very, and I mean very thin on buttered toast it is not bad. Not for breakfast tho IMHO. More as a side for a stew. Kind of like garlic bread.
It means what it says:
Diane is a debutante in the back seat of Jack's (Jacky's) car...
Debutante (noun): an upper-class young woman making her first appearance in fashionable society.
Media: Not true they died it must be a ghost writer were sending our ace reporters to their Australian residence nobody lives after contracting the coronavirus diagnosis.
I don’t know if this has been reported...
When Hanks and his wife got sick, there were just 200 confirmed cases in Australia.
So - no - we are all not in this together, Tom.
The Southern Hemisphere is still in the last days of summer, which means their infection rate is dramatically lower than the Northern Hemisphere.
Was that not the worst movie ever made? The only reason I remember it is because it was so bad.
Tom Hanks is a low-life POS.
But that was behind the shade tree, not in the backseat of Jacky's car.
Yeah.
You’re right. Oh well....I guess life goes on.
