We hear of several high-flying artists who have contracted Covid-19 this month, some severely.

One well-known maestro has spent five weeks on ventilation in an intensive care ward. He tells us he is now recovering.

The Dutch violinist Janine Jansen was locked down in a London hotel. She has just posted on her public page:

 

Dear Friends,

After testing positive for Covid-19 two weeks ago while in London for my new recording project, I am now thankfully recovering well. I had flu-like symptoms but nothing too serious. With plenty of rest I look forward to finishing this special project as soon as possible!
Janine

Stay home. Stay safe.
