Shawn Johnson East tests positive for COVID-19
Shawn Johnson East had shared on her Instagram story that she has tested positive for coronavirus.
The Olympic gymnast wrote, “Got my results back today and they came back positive for Covid. Not going to lie … I’m nervous knowing I’m positive. It’s been a long two weeks of RSV with Drew and now this … my body is exhausted.”
Johnson East is 29 years old and is pregnant with her second child.
She further wrote that she is nervous mainly because “1: I don’t want my family to get sick. 2: I have asthma and have had it my entire life so this scares me a little extra. 3: had a very close family member fight for his life last month while battling Covid so it’s a serious topic of concern/hits home in our household.”
Johnson East is experiencing symptoms such as a cough, sore throat, and headache.
“Just a reminder to take care of yourself. Drink an extra water tonight and wash your hands,” she further added.
