To note, there’s also no way to tell where or how Ellen contracted the disease.
Still, because she had Covid-19, The Ellen Show faced delays in late 2020 and had to shut down production for a while, only coming back this week.
She also called how she contracted Covid-19 “a mystery,” as she is someone who washes her hands regularly and masks up, though it’s worth pointing out that while actually filming television segments I’d assume actors and hosts are somewhat more vulnerable even with precautions in place, simply because they do take their masks off.
