Bryan Cranston lost his sense of smell and taste for a couple of months:
Talking about his symptoms, Bryan Cranston said,” We were very fortunate, very mild symptoms, a couple of days of feeling achy. And then just about a week of severe lethargy and then I lost my sense of taste and smell for a couple of months and that has since come back to about 75%.” After donating the plasma, the blood bank requested the Emmy-winning actor to do a social media post about his donation as they felt it would inspire more plasma donors.
Bryan Cranston revealed that he was in touch with Tom Hanks after he was infected with the COVID-19 virus:
Cranston also revealed that he was in touch with Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson when the couple tested positive for the novel COVID-19 virus in Australia. Cranston said,” When they came back from Australia, the four of us had dinner together and we looked at each other and said I think we can do this because we all had it. We’re all not infected anymore.” Bryan Cranston said that it is still unclear whether they can get the fatal virus again anytime soon and wished that everyone takes proper protection, wear masks, and avoid going to mass gatherings unless needed.
