David Ortiz admits he had Covid-19, but was asymptomatic – CNN

Ortiz told New England Sports Network (NESN) announcers during Friday's Major League Baseball game between the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees.

"Yeah, man, I just got it. I just had my last test yesterday. Thank God I tested negative," Ortiz said, adding that he was asymptomatic so he didn't struggle too badly.

"My brother had it really bad, he had to be in the hospital for about a week. He ended up losing like 25 pounds and, man, this is no joke," he said. "You don't realize how crazy this is until it hits home."

CNN's Jill Martin contributed to this report.
