American pop-rock singer Pink has revealed that she and her three-year-old son Jameson tested positive for the coronavirus.
The 40-year-old singer, whose real name Alecia Beth Moore, took to Instagram to share a sweet snap with her son with a lengthy caption about the diagnosis before slamming the US government over the lack of tests.
She began by writing: “Two weeks ago my three-year-old son, Jameson, and I are were showing symptoms of COVID-19.”
“Fortunately, our primary care physician had access to tests and I tested positive. My family was already sheltering at home and we continued to do so for the last two weeks following the instruction of our doctor.”
Thankfully, Pink and her son have now recovered from the coronavirus. “Just a few days ago we were re-tested and are now thankfully negative,” she wrote.

Despite the encouraging news, Pink made sure to use her platform to criticize the US government over the lack of tests for the coronavirus.
She continued: ‘It is an absolute travesty and failure of our government to not make testing more widely accessible.
Pink decided to take matters into her own hands; pledging a very generous donation totaling $1million to medical causes centred around COVID-19. Then, she made a sweet dedication to her mother Judy Moore who was an emergency room nurse.
