Elba said he decided to get tested after he was with someone who had tested positive, Sky News reported.

Two other celebrities have tested positive so far — Tom Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson — both of whom are quarantined, USA Today reported.

Al Roker and Craig Melvin were missing from Monday’s episode of the “Today” show after a staffer from the third hour of “Today” tested positive. They were off because of an abundance of caution, “Today” reported.
