Add Bebe Winans to the list of stars who've tested positive for the coronavirus.
The gospel icon told The Joe Madison Show that he contracted the virus while traveling to attend a funeral in Detroit. “I just started coughing out of nowhere…then the fatigue came on, and the chills... [My] appetite went away.”
His mother Delores experienced similar symptoms for nearly a week, and his brother was admitted to a hospital. BeBe say's that he suffered a “seizure and pneumonia set in.”
Though his family is recovering, Winans encourages everyone to stay cautious and take the virus seriously. “Sometimes, for some reason, we as a people when we look in and we look at television and various things that’s going on around us, we somehow say, that can’t happen to me for some reason... I was just saying, God, I thank you. I thank you because it could have been a different outcome for me and my family."
