Jessica Chastain’s Covid hasn’t gone away or is this a way to get attention?

Jessica Chastain has continued to cover up at awards shows since the COVID-19 pandemic eased earlier this year, notably matching face coverings to her lavish gowns.

Almost always removing her mask on the red carpet, Chastain revealed why she’s otherwise diligent about wearing a mask and was quick to say she’s “not making a political statement.”
“We tested every day on our show, and even if you didn’t have any symptoms, if you tested positive for COVID, you were out for a week.”

“And I was meeting people at the stage door who were flying in from Shanghai and flying in from all over the world,” he continued. “Being off the show for a week? It was just irresponsible.”

Singer Josh Groban, also in attendance at the Tonys roundtable, jumped in and said: “People in the theater knew. We knew.”

“But yeah, the SAG Awards, the Oscars, a lot of people were saying, “What are you doing”: “I just couldn’t get sick. And I didn’t. I haven’t missed a show.”
