The singer also discussed need for widespread access to testing.
Video by Elisa Tang
\"People need to know that the illness affects the young and old, healthy and unhealthy, rich and poor,\" she said, \"and we must make testing free and more widely accessible to protect our children, our families, our friends and our communities.\"
The \"What About Us\" singer also announced that she's donating $500,000 to Philadelphia's Temple University Hospital Emergency Fund in honor of her mom, who worked there for 18 years, and another $500,000 to the City of Los Angeles Mayor’s Emergency COVID-19 Crisis Fund.
Pink finished her post by thanking \"all of our healthcare professionals and everyone in the world who are working so hard to protect our loved ones.\"
\"You are our heroes!\" she concluded. \"These next two weeks are crucial: please stay home. Please. Stay. Home.\"
