The actor’s address to fans came after his talent agency Pro-Fit released a statement in Japan. Okamoto then took to Twitter to thank fans for their support and assure them he was feeling alright.
“As the agency announced, a PCR test for COVID-19 was given [to me] and came out positive. Currently, though I am asymptomatic, I will continue to take care of myself at home and follow up with medical centers as need be. I apologize for causing any concern or inconvenience to my fans who support me,” Okamoto wrote.
