Former CNN Presenter, Larry King, 87, has reportedlytested positive for coronavirus.
According to a statement released by his family, he has been hospitalized at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles for more than a week, and is in intensive care due to the fact he has Type 2 diabetes.
His own medical issues inspired him to start the Larry King Cardiac Foundation, a non-profit aimed at helping those without health insurance afford medical care.
King hosted CNN’s “Larry King Live” for 25 years, interviewing presidential candidates, celebrities, athletes, movie stars and everyday people. He retired in 2010 after taping more than 6,000 episodes of the show.
