August Maturo Says Younger Brother Ocean Can't Access Coronavirus Test

August Maturo is speaking out after his family has been unable to access a coronavirus test for his younger brother.

The 12-year-old actor took to his Instagram to reveal his younger brother Ocean has been sick with an unidentified illness and unable to get tested.

“My little brother Ocean is sick, he tested negative for Influenza A & B, so we asked for a Coronavirus test. GUESS WHAT? There are no tests, and it’s almost impossible to get one. We live in Ventura County with almost 1,000,000 people here and only 77 people TOTAL have been tested. THIS MAKES 0 SENSE!” August wrote.

He continued, “I’m not very worried about Ocean, because he’s young & strong, but I’m worried about my 80 yr old grandmother who lives with us! And my family members with asthma! THIS IS THE USA – WHY ARE THERE NO TESTS FOR US?”

August asked for fans to contact California governor Gavin Newsom and local reps to demand public access to the tests.

We hope Ocean is soon able to access a test and make a quick recovery.
