Christopher Cross says he’s experiencing temporary paralysis of legs while recovering from coronavirus

Earlier this month, Christopher Cross shared with fans that he tested positive for COVID-19.

Cross said that by the time he was able to receive a test for coronavirus, he was beyond the “infection window,” and while he became very ill, did not develop respiratory issues.

However, the soft-rock singer is still in the recovery process and in an update to fans this week, said that as a complication from the illness, he’s suffered muscle weakness and temporary paralysis of his legs.

Cross, 68, said he has started physical therapy and doctors have assured him that he will recover.
