Angela Kinsey has tested positive for the novel coronavirus and is now sharing her story.
On Tuesday, The Office alum, 49, informed her followers on her Instagram Story that she recently tested positive for the virus, revealing that she started to feel "off" after her husband, Joshua Snyder, her two stepsons, and later her daughter, all tested positive for the virus in the last couple of weeks.
"I started not feeling well and went to get retested," she wrote on an Instagram Story picture of her rapid test results. "I knew the odds were against me since I was living with 4 Covid positive people. I really tried to quarantine and not get it."

"It’s been a tough few days here but me and my morning mask hair wanted to say a big thank you for all of your messages of love and support. They have meant so much! ??," she began her message. "To bring some of you up to speed, last weekend our boys started running low grade fevers. We got everyone tested and the boys tested positive for Covid. We don’t go out and about and have been in lockdown so we aren’t sure how they got it. Me, my husband and daughter all tested negative."
"We went into quarantine in our own home. Living in separate bedrooms, wearing masks etc. This week Isabel and Josh start running fever. We immediately retested again. Isabel and Josh now have Covid," Kinsey explained. "I somehow do not. I am now quarantining by myself. So far they are all having very mild cases and I am thankful for that. We’ll be having a masked Covid Christmas over here. Stay safe y’all! Sending you my love. (And, I am double masking when I am around my family. This cloth mask and an N95 over it but it’s hard to breath. I just figured y’all might be curious how I’m navigating getting through my house.) Also, 2020 can kiss my a--."
