Richard Wilkins, who contracted COVID-19 after interacting with Rita Wilson on Today Extra, has fronted an ad for Nine imploring Australians to help prevent the spread of the virus.

The CSA also features a number of Nine personalities, including Rebecca Maddern who feared for her family when she heard Wilkins had tested positive and also had to self isolate.
