New York, 3rd December: Hollywood actor Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson revealed that they still have COVID-19 antibodies.

According to reports, Hollywood power couple Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson say that even after nine months of testing positive for COVID-19, they still have antibodies.

As per previous reports, the duo had contracted the virus in Australia in March and since then have offered to help fight for the cause.

Speaking on the show ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’, the couple shared their experience.

“I feel like you’re the only person I don’t have to worry about because you must be brimming with antibodies right now,” Jimmy asked Rita.

“I still have antibodies!” she replied.

Both 64-year-old Rita and Hanks are required to get tested for the virus after every couple of months, being part of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) program.

“They test us and so far we still have them. They diminish as you get farther away from your infection, but they’re still there helping us out,” she said.

Moreover, the couple has been donating plasma to support the cause of vaccine research.

‘Forrest Gump’ star revealed that the illness left him feeling exhausted while his wife suffered from a high fever and lost her sense of taste.

“We had very different symptoms. She had a higher fever than I did. She had horrible nausea. We were eating takeout food that I thought was delicious. It was savoury goodness. It had butter sauces. It had come from a thing, highly recommended joint. And she was saying, ‘This tastes like oatmeal to me.’ I thought she was insane,” he said.
