Tom Hanks' sister is opening up about the actor's positive coronavirus diagnosis, reminding fans that being an actor doesn't make him immune from the worldwide pandemic.
The "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood" star, 63, has continued to provide fans updates about his and wife Rita Wilson's symptoms -- the latest being that their fevers are gone but they're still enduring "the blahs."
Now, Hanks' sister, Sandra Hanks Benoiton, broke her silence about his diagnosis as she remains in Italy under quarantine.

"I have communicated with my brother. He's not great, but still OK," Sandra told the Daily Mail.
Asked if she was shocked by her brother's diagnosis, Sandra replied: "No. He's an actor, not a God [but] medical care in Australia is good."
According to the outlet, Sandra and her family moved to Italy in 2016. She is currently in the Pordenone province of Italy and her family is doing "okay." They are expected to remain on lockdown until April 3.
