George Stephanopoulos Says He Tested Positive for Covid-19 Antibodies After New York Post Slams His Stroll
ABC’s George Stephanopoulos announced on Tuesday that he’s on the mend after being diagnosed with the coronavirus — and has even tested positive for Covid-19 antibodies.
The Good Morning America host informed his Twitter followers, “I tested positive for Covid antibodies, confirming I cleared the virus after weeks without symptoms. I’ve also signed up for a clinical trial to donate my blood plasma and expect to make the donation in the coming weeks.”
Good news for me and my family. Last week I tested positive for Covid antibodies, confirming I cleared the virus after weeks without symptoms. I’ve also signed up for a clinical trial to donate my blood plasma and expect to make the donation in the coming weeks

Stephanopoulos announced that he had Covid-19 eight days ago, which came after his wife, actress Ali Wentworth, was also diagnosed with the virus.
Stephanopoulos’ tweet comes the morning he appeared on the cover of a New York tabloid with the unflattering headline: “MASK HOLE.”
The New York Post snapped shots of the GMA anchor walking around East Hampton on Monday, with a mask hanging around his neck. That comes after a neighbor spotted him visiting a local drugstore, and more recently he walked his dog on a private golf course.
