Coronavirus: Younger and Entourage star Debi Mazar, 55, tests positive for bug

Younger and Entourage star Debi Mazar was the latest celeb to contract coronavirus.

The actress, 55, confided in her 402K fans on Instagram on Saturday she had got the killer bug which has been sweeping the globe in a worldwide pandemic.

Debi shared her agony as she suffered from a fever, headaches, sore throat, body aches, ear ringing and a dry cough.

Also, the Goodfellas star shared her husband Gabriele Corcos as well as their two daughters Evelina, 17, and Giulia, 14, had been suffering from a bug.

She wrote: “I AM OK! About a month ago my entire home (husband and two teen daughters) got an odd bug- Low grade fever, headaches, sore throat, body aches, ears ringing and a dry cough.

“It cleared up quickly. Seasonal I thought? but it felt unusual/different... Two weeks later, March 15th, I woke up with all those same symptoms but super intense body aches, and 102.4 fever.

“I figured maybe I got the flu or..Corona? I had had cocktails the evening prior, and smoked a few cigarettes. I figured I had jacked my immune system from having a fun night with friends."

In as much detail as possible, the American divulged a doctor said she didn't meet the criteria for the bug.

However, a month on the actress has tested positive for coronavirus amid the outbreak.

She added: “I called a doctor/friend to ask if I could get the Covid-19 test on 3/16. He said NO, I didn’t meet the criteria. I hadn’t recently traveled out of the country& I hadnt been with someone who had actually tested positive.

“I found this kind of a CRAZY criteria for a NY’er as I had taken the subway, gone to the theater, the grocery store, the pharmacy, hair salon, etc.
