Description:
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and, reportedly, Robert Pattinson, are the latest

positive and it felt like a kick in the gut. He said he and his family lived in
quarantine for an entire month, and that they picked up the virus from close
family members. His daughters, ages 4 and 2, suffered only mild symptoms,
but it was a much rougher experience for him and his wife, Lauren.
