PINK revealed she tested positive for coronavirus two weeks ago and announced she will pledge one MILLION dollars to help combat the global pandemic.
Alecia “Pink” Moore, 40, said that she was “fortunate” enough to access a test in March after both she and her three-year-old son Jameson began to show symptoms of COVID-19.
Pink tested positive for COVID-19 two weeks ago
The Try singer posted on Twitter Friday: “Two weeks ago my three-year old son, Jameson, and I were showing symptoms of COVID-19.
“Fortunately, our primary care physician had access to tests and I tested positive.
“My family was already sheltering at home and continued to do so for the last two weeks following the instruction of our doctor.
“Just a few days ago we were re-tested and are now thankful negative. It is an absolute travesty and failure of our government to not make testing more widely accessible.
“This illness is serious and real. People need to know that the illness affect the young and old, healthy and unhealthy, rich and poor.
“And we must make testing free and more widely accessible to protect our children, our families, our friends and our communities.
“In an effort to support the healthcare professionals who are battling on the frontline everyday, I am donating $500,000 to the Temple University Hospital Emergency Fund in Philadelphia in honor of my mother, Judy Moore, who worked there for 18 years.
