WDIV morning anchor Evrod Cassimy has tested positive for coronavirus, the station reports. He said he's overwhelmed but on the mend.
“Take this very seriously because I would not want anybody to go through what I’ve gone through," he says. "I took it as seriously as most people are and still got it. I’m hurting and I am going to be OK.”
He adds early Wednesday:
Please keep praying. For all those fighting Coronavirus I’m fighting with you. To those who have lost loved ones to this disgusting virus my heart goes out to you.
