Together in sickness and health. Dwayne Johnson announced that he and his family tested positive for the coronavirus — but are doing better after a few rough weeks.

The family, who are now feeling better, got through the stress and scare of getting the virus together.

“I could tell you that this has been one of the most challenging and difficult things we have ever had to endure as a family, and for me, too, personally as well,” he explained in the 11-minute video. “And I’ve gone through some doozies in the past. Testing positive for COVID-19 is much different than overcoming nasty injuries, or being evicted, or even being broke, which I have been more than a few times.”

When his family learned they all had contracted the virus, Johnson said that he was rattled because it is his top priority to “always protect my family and to protect my children, my loved ones.”
