Tom Hanks compares coronavirus battle to World War II: 'We're all in this together'

Tom Hanks believes the effort to stop the spread of coronavirus needs to be a collective one that involves common sense on the part of all Americans.

"The idea of doing one's part, though, should be so simple — wear a mask, social distance, wash your hands," Hanks said on TODAY Tuesday in his first television interview since he and wife Rita Wilson recovered from coronavirus.

"That alone means you are contributing to the betterment of your house, your work, your town, your society as a whole, and it's such a small thing. It's a mystery to me how somehow that has been wiped out of what should be ingrained in the behavior of us all."

Hanks and Wilson announced on March 11 that they had tested positive for COVID-19, becoming the first celebrities to share that they had been diagnosed with an illness that has now killed more than 500,000 people worldwide. Cases have continued to spike in more than half the country.

6. That's it in a nutshell

There’s really only three things we can do in order to get to tomorrow: Wear a mask, social distance, wash our hands," he said. "Those things are so simple, so easy, if anybody cannot find it in themselves to practice those three very basic things — I just think shame on you."
