CNN’s Chris Cuomo is speaking out after receiving his coronavirus diagnoses.

Cuomo announced his diagnosis in a tweet on Tuesday, as IJR previously reported.
Cuomo called on Americans to do everything they can to avoid contracting the virus.
Watch his comments below:
“Together as ever as one, that is our remedy. What do you say? Let’s get after it,” Cuomo said.
The political commentator went on to discuss the concerns and fears he has in receiving the diagnosis.
“I am not able to be there for my family right now in the way that I want to be,” Cuomo said. “I still have to see if I got any of them sick, and you can understand how sickening that is to me as a husband and a father.”
He recognized the bigger picture of the coronavirus crisis and the number of Americans being affected by it. Cuomo acknowledged the rate of testing and how testing is “just starting to catch up.”
