Matthew Broderick Says Sister Janet Is on ‘Road to Full Recovery’ After Coronavirus Diagnosis

Matthew Broderick is speaking out after news of his sister, Janet Broderick, testing positive for coronavirus.

In a statement to PEOPLE, the actor, 57, says his 64-year-old sibling is recovering in Beverly Hills, California, where she was hospitalized.

“My entire family is grateful for the concern about, and the well wishes for, my sister Janet. I’m happy to say she is feeling much better and is on the road to a full recovery,” Matthew says. “We are all very appreciative for the wonderful care she received from the amazing doctors and nurses at Cedars-Sinai.”

His sister Janet fell ill after attending the Consortium of Endowed Episcopal Parishes conference in Louisville, Kentucky, where another attendee was diagnosed with the virus, according to a statement from her parish, All Saints Episcopal Church, last Wednesday.

“She is receiving the best medical care available and her doctors’ prognosis is for a complete and full recovery,” the church said. “It will take some time, but Janet is resting comfortably at Cedars until the time she is released and can return home to complete her recovery.”

Janet, who is a former rector of St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Morristown, New Jersey, was moved to the ICU and placed under isolation before her test results confirmed her positive coronavirus diagnosis.

It’s all fine to talk about the numbers “recovered” when the sick have the money for the best medical care and there are ICU beds available.

But what happens to the rest of the world, who don’t have such wealth?
