He then shared the good news. "But I am happy to tell you guys that we as a family are good. We’re on the other end of it, we’re on the other side. We’re no longer contagious, and we are — thank God — we are healthy,” he said.

Dwayne Johnson explains how his small daughters faced coronavirus. He reveals that they got COVID-19 from really close-friends.
