Pink reveals she has had coronavirus before slamming Donald Trump over US testing

American singer Pink has revealed she contracted coronavirus as she donated US$1 million to emergency funds and blasted Donald Trump’s handling of the crisis.

The superstar said she and her three-year-old son Jameson had shown symptoms of Covid-19 two weeks ago and that she tested positive.

Both had since tested negative “thankfully”, the Grammy Award-winner said, before she lambasted the US government’s response.

Pink told her 7.7m followers on Instangram: “It is an absolute travesty and failure of our government to not make testing more widely accessible.

Maybe they were only able to be tested when they were already on the downward slope.
