CNN news anchor Brooke Baldwin has fully recovered from the coronavirus.

Earlier his month, the CNN anchor tested positive for the coronavirus, the second on-air personality at the news network to come down with the disease.

In an Instagram post at the time, Baldwin said that her symptoms — a fever, chills and aches — came on suddenly the day before.

She said she’d been social distancing and doing all of the things that medical experts have said to do.
