In a new Instagram post, Cristina Cuomo says her husband of 19 years, Chris Cuomo, has "successfully turned the corner away from his severe symptoms and the potential danger of pneumonia" with coronavirus.

Cristina, who has a long career in journalism and media, has been keeping friends, family, and fans updated on his improving condition via her lifestyle and wellness platform The Purist, where she details Chris's daily diet, exercise regimen, and even his temperature. In her latest Instagram update, she went on to say that her husband, "still feels consistently light-headed, week, fever on, fever off." So, she's continued working with Dr. Linda Lancaster, an energy medicine physician who Cristina says helped cure her "aggressive" Lyme disease last summer, on a diet strong in herbs and vitamins. "It takes a lot of energy to break down raw foods, especially when youre sick," she wrote on Instagram. Chris has been eating a "stress-free diet," according to the post, so as not to tax his liver or consume his energy.

The first photo in Cristina's post featured Chris looking healthy and happy with their son, Mario Jr., 14, named after Chris's late father, the former governor of New York. Swipe, and you'll also see a photo of Chris standing in his pajamas and face mask on the stairs to their basement in Long Island, where he's quarantining. You can see a tray with food, a tissue box, and a tub of Lysol wipes.

Tons of well wishes poured into the comments section, like this note from Chris's CNN co-worker, Lisa Ling: "You are amazing CGC. Chris is so lucky to have you." Another friend wrote, "Hes got the best home nurse ever.... sending well wishes ."

Despite his ups and downs with coronavirus, Chris has still been making appearances on CNN, where he hosts Cuomo Prime Time. As recently as last evening, he told Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta, "I'm scared by this. And it frustrates me because I can't get out of this basement."

Chris added something new about the emotional toll the virus takes on people as well: "People are afraid to talk about it, and I'm not," he told Dr. Gupta. "This virus creates psychological illness. It is in my head. It is causing people depression, and it's creating brain fog, and it's creating edginess in people. The experts I'm talking to are saying yes, yes, we've seen that. But how do you treat it and what does it mean down the road? We don't know."

We're hoping for Chris's full recovery and discharge from the basement soon. In the meantime we know he's in the best of care thanks to his wife Cristina and their kids!
