George Stephanopoulos, the chief anchor for ABC News, announced Monday he had tested positive for the coronavirus, making him the latest high-profile broadcast journalist to become infected with the disease.
Stephanopoulos suggested he likely contracted Covid-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, from his wife, actress and comedian Ali Wentworth, who revealed she had tested positive earlier this month.
“I also learned over the weekend that my test came back positive for Covid, as well, which is really no surprise, given the fact that I’ve been here for a couple of weeks,” Stephanopoulos said on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” which he co-hosts.
