"I feel it is my moral obligation to announce that I have tested positive for Covid19 , also known as the Corona Virus," the Madrid tenor Plácido Domingo revealed in a statement released on social media this Sunday.

"My family and I are and will remain individually isolated for as long as medically necessary," the statement continues. "Currently we are all in good health, but I had cough and fever symptoms , so I decided to have the test and the result was positive."

" I beg you all to be extremely careful, " says the 79-year-old musician, "to follow basic rules like washing your hands frequently, staying at least two meters away from others, doing everything you can to stop the spread of the virus and above all, staying home if possible, "he adds.

Together we can fight this virus and stop the current global crisis so that we can return to our normal daily lives as soon as possible. Follow your local government's guidelines and regulations to stay safe and protect not only yourself but all our community, "concludes Plácido Domingo in this note.
