I have nothing to do with you..I'll never see you"
In the one-minute and 30-seconds long video, the 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' creator seated in an armchair, stressed that people are passing up a "fantastic opportunity - a once in a lifetime opportunity... to stay in the house, sit on the couch and watch TV"
"So, stay at home... and... you know, don't see anyone, except maybe if there's a plumbing emergency, let the plumber in and then, you know, wipe everything down after he leaves, but that's it," he concluded.
Many big names from the entertainment industry have been using social media platforms at its best in raising awareness about the importance of social-distancing during these trying times.
