Laura Dern hopes people still take COVID-19 'very seriously'

Laura Dern is taking Covid-19 “very seriously” after one of her friends lost his life to the virus.

The 53-year-old actress has said she hopes “everyone globally” is taking the ongoing coronavirus pandemic seriously, as she admitted she is being extra cautious when out in public, after a “beautiful friend” of hers sadly died when he contracted the virus.

She also said she’s had friends on ventilators, who pulled through.

Laura wants to see everyone following “essential” health precautions to prevent the spread of Covid-19, including mask wearing, social distancing, and regular testing.
