Ellen DeGeneres announced this week that she tested positive for COVID-19 and paused production of her daytime talk show as a result through early 2021.
In a note posted early Thursday to her social media platforms , DeGeneres said she was feeling fine after her diagnosis. She also promised to return after the holidays but did not specify a date.
Anyone who has been in close contact with me has been notified, and I am following all proper [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] guidelines, she wrote.
