CNN news anchor Brooke Baldwin has tested positive for the coronavirus.
She joins fellow colleague Chris Cuomo in becoming the second on-air personality at the news network to come down with the disease.
In an Instagram post Friday, Baldwin said that her symptoms — a fever, chills and aches — came on suddenly Thursday afternoon.
She said she’d been social distancing and doing all of the things that medical experts have said to do.
“Still — it got me,” she said.
Cuomo twice did shows remotely from the basement of his home –– and the same fate may be in store for Baldwin.
As recently as Sunday she provided an update on her condition inn a social media post, saying, “I’m very healthy and feel like one of the lucky ones… but am careful to still take this day by day.”

Most people who get the coronavirus suffer mild to moderate symptoms and recover. But for some, mostly the elderly and those with underlying conditions, it can be fatal.
