Vivica A. Fox took to social media on Tuesday morning to happily report she does NOT have COVID-19.
The actress was slated to host the Emmys pre-show, but she had to pull out at the last minute after testing positive for COVID-19.
In a statement, Vivica said:
I am terribly sorry I cannot be with my E! family tonight! Unfortunately, I have tested positive for the coronavirus. So, in an abundance of caution, I am isolating myself at home.
During these unprecedented times, it’s more important than ever that we follow all safety and health rules and guidelines to protect ourselves and each other. I’m sending my very best to Nina and Brad, who I know will hold down the fort, and congratulations to all tonight’s nominees! I look forward to seeing everyone again soon!
Turns out Vivica A. Fox took an at-home COVID-19 test that gave her a false positive.
After visiting the doctor to be retested, her results came back negative.
The actress posted a statement and her test results on social media just in case any one tried to second-guess her.
On Friday, I took a self-administered COVID-19 test and as many of you are aware, it came back positive. Two days ago, I took another COVID test, this one administered by a medical professional, and I am thrilled to announce that last night my results came back NEGATIVE! I am feeling great and I want to thank everyone for their show of love and support.
