On Thursday, U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams called on Kylie Jenner and other influencers to encourage their social media followers to observe safety guidelines set by officials, including staying home to avoid spreading the virus.

\"Watch What Happens Live\" host Andy Cohen also revealed in an Instagram post Friday that after days of self-quarantine and \"not feeling great,\" he has tested positive for coronavirus.

\"As much as I felt like I could push through whatever I was feeling to do #WWHL from home, we’re putting a pin in that for now so I can focus on getting better,\" he wrote. \"I want to thank all the medical professionals who are working tirelessly for all of us, and urge everybody to stay home and take care of themselves.\"

After a few days of self-quarantine, and not feeling great, I have tested positive for Coronavirus. As much as I felt like I could push through whatever I was feeling to do #WWHL from home, we’re putting a pin in that for now so I can focus on getting better. I want to thank all the medical professionals who are working tirelessly for all of us, and urge everybody to stay home and take care of themselves.
