During a press-con for his upcoming movie Greyhound, Hanks said about coronavirus precautions (via), "There's really only three things we can do in order to get to tomorrow: Wear a mask, social distance, wash our hands."

He added, "Those things are so simple, so easy, if anybody cannot find it in themselves to practice those three very basic things – I just think shame on you. Don't be a p----, get on with it, do your part. It's very basic. If you're driving a car, you don't go too fast, you use your turn signal and you avoid hitting pedestrians. My Lord, it's common sense."

About his and wife's Covid-19 symptoms and recovery, Hanks had earlier shared, "Looking back, I also realised that I was losing my sense of taste and smell, which I didn't realise at the time. I was completely nauseous and I had vertigo. I could not walk and my muscles felt very weak."
