Kylie Jenner is giving back and using her influencer power to fight the coronavirus.
The 22-year-old billionaire took to Instagram on Thursday to share her best advice for fighting COVID-19. This news comes after the Surgeon General Jerome Adams, went on “Good Morning America” earlier in the day and asked social media influencers to help fight the Coronavirus.
“Hey, guys. Happy self-quarantine!” Jenner says in the Instagram post. “I know I've already been doing my daily reminders about how important it is right now to practice social distancing and self-quarantine. I'm going on my ninth day. The coronavirus is a real thing. I listened to the Surgeon General this morning…he definitely encouraged me to come on here and talk to you guys.”
“Please stay inside,” she begged. “Please stay inside. Practice social distancing, self-quarantine. If you live with your parents, you don't want to go home and get your parents sick. You might have it and not even know and be infecting other people. It's serious and the only way that we're gonna slow this down is if we do this because there is not a cure right now.”
Jenner went on to explain, “Nobody is immune to this. Millennials are not immune to this.” “New evidence,” she pointed out, “actually shows that a large percentage of people in the hospital right now are young adults.”
“I love you guys,” she said. “We're going to get through this together. We just have to listen to each other, respect each other, self-quarantine.”
She then encouraged other influencers to speak up to their fanbases.
This news comes after thousands of people lost their job following the Hollywood shutdown and the potential for a long-term shutdown in the film industry. Filmmaking across the country is currently on hiatus as the coronavirus outbreak continues to spread around the world.
The CDC issued a recommendation, which could become a mandate that all gather over 50 people should be canceled or postponed for the next eight weeks, which would mean into at least mid-May. That would almost assuredly include TV show and movie productions, where even a barebones staff would consist of very few crew operators, crew workers, and producers on a set.
