Wow, that's horrible!  :(

So sad, I’m a fan. 😢

Chet, their son, is reassuring people that Hanks and Rita are fine, so I hope they have a speedy recovery.  :)

Tom Hanks and his actress wife Rita Wilson became two of the highest profile people to test positive for the coronavirus earlier this week. The pair are being treated in Australia where Hanks expressed his thanks for their care, accompanied by a picture of iconic food brand Vegemite. Amid scores of messages wishing them a swift recovery one commentator questioned the "butter to Vegemite ratio" on his toast.

Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six-foot-four and full of muscles

He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich

When I was a kid I didn’t know vegemite was a food. I thought vegemite sandwich was Australian for punch in the gut. Like my dad always said knuckle sandwich.

During the early 1980s, Vegemite was been sold at an Australian based shop near the Australian High Commission in London, having the jars displayed in the window. I never got round to buying one, so that I got to know the taste

What is Vegemite made with?

Yeast. It is some sort of fermented yeast concoction. An acquired taste, I am told.

Good news! :)

And ol' Trumpy read that same news and thought that "discharged" meant Tom Hanks had died: https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-trump-almost-tweeted-that-tom-hanks-died-from-covid-19-2020-3

Should this be rolled into the COVID mega thread? ???

I'm low-key jealous of people who got sick and recovered, because they don't have to self-isolate anymore
