GMahilani Mmk that’s nice and all. But she’d help more if she was donating her plasma!

Tax deducted.

This disease is not a respecter of persons. It goes for rich or poor, young or old!!!!

Imagine if she didn't get covid-19, would she have donated anything ? I think not. This is an attention grab for someone with a dying career

Glad to hear he has recovered and is doing fine! His donation will help thousands of Americans!

Singer got a chest cold and recovered.

How stress may influence covid-19 symptoms. Spread the joy:

robreiner Alyssa_Milano cher BetteMidler AND YOU?

I heard that they gave her morphine for it but it made her itch, she tried to call a nurse but they were being a bitch, she tried to out & run as fast as she could to the middle of nowhere but was told she had to stay on lockdown.

Pink love you girl!! 👍🏽

luvcaffeine thank goodness for our hero's! Pink is now my hero. Thank you for inspiring others to find that the joy of giving is so much richer than the joy of consuming.

That’s awesome stuff. Thanx Pink at least you didn’t forget where you came from

starrbowden My thing is she got 4 tests. Privilege is beautiful thing. 🤷🏿‍♂️

I'm glad Pink & her fam is ok but trippin on how they got tested multiple x's but most people are being denied even one, even after being told it's probably a COVID19. 😔

Not one person cares about singer/celebrity trash that catch this virus.

God bless you and protect you and your family. 🙏

maybe the Clintons and Obamas can match......ok, group laugh

HaraldDoornbos In het kader van de zegswijze 'uitzonderingen die de regel bevestigen'.

Even more reason to admire her.

It really be helpful to everyone if she shared how she thought she got it?

Boy, celebrities really took to these coronavirus tests like they were adopting Asian kids or something 😒

Why are ppl on ventilators..ppl are dying..she tests positive so do bunch of other celebs yet they are perfectly fine..no hospital..it must have e benn very,very mild..as there is no treatment for covid-19 Was she given medicationthe rest of us can't access?

Hold up....she had or she has?

Pink looks like she’s caught pretty much every virus at some point.

Good on her for donating! Shouldnt have to though should she? Perhaps if that evil orange f*ck in the White House cared about the American people we wouldn’t be in this mess.

she’s donated a bigger share of her wealth than the richest man in the world

The Mayor's Fund is bullshit

I love Pink

wood_brwood333 It's estimated Pink made $57 million in 2019 alone.

All of the sudden every celebrity and politician has covid19. Becoming trendy...

Singer Pink wonderful gesture glad you got better be safe hoping you can convince your friends in your field to donate God bless you

Deeply kind gifts.

Strange. Most patients, doctors and nurses etc. can't seem to get tested, but a wealthy celeb can get two. Just lucky I guess 🙃 CentralPark

What has morally bankrupt Trump donated?

They’re testing people twice? 🤔

New album coming out?

Take care !!!✌

Only 500,000? 600,000 would have done it for me maybe 510,000 but 500,00? Who does she take us for? Does she even care if we live or die? Pink? More like STINK 😩

Everybody Raise Your Glass to this act of philanthropy.

And she also gave $500k to Australian bushfire aid if I’m not mistaken? Wish more celebs followed suit

❤️

Lol...pr lies....but great she donated

Ok 2020. I want to get off.

deray I can't stay on your life support There's a shortage in the switch (just like a pill) I can't stay on your morphine 'Cause it's making me itch (just like a pill) I said I tried to call the nurse again But she's being a little bitch (just like a pill)

What DIVOC is going on

Sorry You infected with covid 19 I pray to God for you. He is power full in the world. You fund 1million for others. Because you have enough dollar. I can pray for world including you & me. Because God not asked money. I am a poor man but I am cardiac patient can you help me?

Had 🤔

Why do singers make so much money ?

I Believe in you!

Love her.

Can we pretend that we all end up okay?

How did she have it and get cured? They don’t have a cure! More people died of the virus today! Over 1100 people! I think this really insensitive! If there is a cure it should be for all! I don’t believe her!!!

She also has been tested for shitty music. The results came back overwhelmingly positive

SUUUUUUUUURE SHE DOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only $500,000 that's like $50 bucks for her. 😒

Had it eh?

Did she really have it or is this another desperate attention seeking attempt like Kathy Griffin? The hollywood celebs will do anything for more attention.

“Has Covid” is pointless sensationalism. Mild or severe? Almost all celebrity infections have been mild. Tom Hanks, Idris.. they’ll all be fine.

'Had'

She already had symptoms, was tested, the tests where returned positive, was treated, quarantined, recovered....ok this IS the twilight zone.

What a lovey last name

Are celebrities out licking every surface they see or something?

How did she get it!?

I don’t believe it !! But good thing she’s donating.

Thanks pink 🥰

Sounds kinda fake.. idk confusing times.

SpeedyRecovery Pink! Hero

How covid-19 is driving public-sector innovationAcross Britain’s public sector, innovation that was previously unthinkable is happening Another bit of good positive news. No new hospitals are built in the UK. They just misused exhibition centres and ice rings but putting cardboard walls but no equipment. There are no 30,000 ventilators, just 30 - remember? This is a shameful farce. Oh I hope so. To think that we won't actually get anything out of this whole thing, where every everyday thing was destroyed for no reason. I want a better world out of this, at the end.
