Tom Hanks Reminds The Importance Of Using Masks

JAKARTA - Tom Hanks has become one of the public figures who has not given up in telling the public about the dangers of COVID-19. He uses his social media to share ways to make the spread of the virus stop quickly.

As is known, the Oscar winner was diagnosed with COVID-19 with his wife, Rita Wilson in March. The two received intensive care while in Australia and returned to the United States after recovering.

Due to his condition, he had to stop filming the biopic Elvis Presley. Even though it is just entering the pre-production stage, it is known that the crew and cast are preparing to shoot.

Feeling how difficult it is to survive the COVID-19 virus, Hanks continues to ask the public to do things that can avoid the rapid spread of the virus. Some of these include washing hands, wearing masks, and exercising social distancing.

"I do not understand. It's the least you can do. " he said through a video. He likens someone who drives a car. If a person drives, he must comply with the speed limits and avoid crossing the countryside. "If you can't do that, you shouldn't be driving the car."

According to this Forrest Gump player, the three things he mentioned were the simplest things anyone could do. “If you don't wear a mask and wash your hands and social distancing, I have no respect for you. I don't agree with your argument. "

Meanwhile, the film he starred in, Greyhound will be released via OTT streaming service rather than waiting for theaters to reopen. Greyhound will be released on July 10.
