Pink revela ter se curado de Covid-19 e anuncia doação de US$ 1 mi ao combate à doença

A cantora Pink, 40, revelou ter sido diagnosticada e, felizmente, se recuperado da Covid-19, doença causada pelo novo coronavírus.

Na última sexta-feira (3), a americana postou no Instagram uma linda foto ao lado do filho de três anos, Jameson, e descreveu nas legendas três semanas atrás, ambos tinham sintomas da Covid-19, foram testados positivos e imediatamente foram tratados por um médico particular da família.

No texto, Pink demonstrou indignação sobre como a desigualdade social nos Estados Unidos impede que cidadãos tenham acesso a testes – e que a doença é séria e deve ser tratada como tal.

“As pessoas precisam saber que ela afeta os jovens e os velhos, os saudáveis e não saudáveis, os ricos e pobres”, disse.

Ela anunciou que doou US$ 500 mil ao hospital em que a mãe dela trabalhava, o Temple University Hospital Emergency, para serem usados no tratamento de pessoas internadas com coronavírus, e outros US$ 500 mil ao Los Angeles Mayor’s Emergency COVID-19 Crisis Fund, um fundo em Los Angeles dedicado ao combate à doença.

“Obrigado a todos os profissionais da saúde e a todos do mundo que estão trabalhando duro para proteger nossos amados. Vocês são nossos heróis!”, escreveu.

Two weeks ago my three-year old son, Jameson, and I are 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 we 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 thankfully 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 affects 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 frontlines every day, 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 in the Cardiomyopathy and Heart Transplant Center. Additionally, I am donating $500,000 to the City of Los Angeles Mayor’s Emergency COVID-19 Crisis Fund. THANK YOU to all of our healthcare professionals and everyone in the world who are working so hard to protect our loved ones. You are our heroes! These next two weeks are crucial: please stay home. Please. Stay. Home.❤️
