Lesley Stahl

Lesley Stahl of CBS News' 60 Minutes revealed at the end of last night's (May 3rd) show that she'd been ill with the coronavirus and was hospitalized for a week. Stahl, who is now recovered, said she was, quote, "really scared" after fighting pneumonia caused by the virus at home for two weeks before going to the hospital. The 78-year-old praised the hospital staff who helped care for her as well as all health care workers, saying, "Thanks to them, like so many other patients, I am well now. Tonight, we all owe them our gratitude, our admiration and, in some cases, our lives."
