Baldwin anchors CNN Newsroom from 2 PM ET to 4 PM ET weekdays. Anderson Cooper anchored at the 2 PM hour on Friday, while Baldwin wrote that she looked forward to being back on TV and “seeing you real soon.”
Earlier this week, one of her colleagues, Chris Cuomo, announced that he had tested positive, but he has continued to anchor Cuomo Prime Time from the basement of his home.
Baldwin added in her note, “I’m healthy…no underlying conditions…Honestly, I feel like one of the lucky ones.”
A number of news personalities have begun anchoring from their homes, including those who are doing so because of some exposure to the virus or out of a sense of precaution.
