As we’ve been told many times since the beginning of the pandemic, those who are elderly, have medical conditions, and/or children, are considered high risk groups and are more vulnerable in contracting the virus; so it may come as a shock to hear that someone like Dwayne Johnson could be tested positive.
The actor took to social media to share the news that not only did he test positive for COVID-19, but so did the rest of his family that includes his wife, Lauren and their two daughters.

The actor shared the news on Instagram saying:
“I wanted to give you guys a helpful update on some of the things I’ve been going through on my end for the last couple of weeks now. My wife Lauren, my two baby girls, and I have all test positive for COVID-19. I can tell you that this has been one of the most challenging and difficult things we have ever had to endure as a family. And, for me personally as well.”
According to the video, Dwayne and his family had contracted the virus through some “close family friends” who had come over to their house and the friends are “devastated that it led to them infecting our family.”
“My message to all of you around the world. Stay disciplined. Boost your immune system. Commit to wellness. Wear your mask. Protect your family. Be strict about having people over your house or gatherings,” the actor captioned the video. ‘Stay positive. And care for your fellow human beings. Stay healthy, my friends.”
The actor shared that he and his family are now “on the other side of COVID-19, and we are stronger and healthier.”
“We as a family are good,” he said. “We are no longer contagious and we are, thank God, we are healthy.”
We’re hoping that The Rock and his family make a full recovery!
