LARRY KING was admitted over a week ago to CEDARS-SINAI MEDICAL CENTER in LOS ANGELES after testing positive for COVID-19 coronavirus, according to unnamed sources cited by several news organizations, including his former employer CNN.

KING, who hosted an overnight show on national and local MIAMI radio as well as CNN's "LARRY KING LIVE" for decades and more recently hosted an three-times-weekly show on the online ORA TV platform, is in at-risk categories including age (87) and health history (heart attacks and bypass surgery, lung cancer, stroke, diabetes).

KING was moved out of the Intensive Care Unit at CEDARS-SINAI on SUNDAY (1/3) to continue his recovery, a report from NBC NEWS indicates, citing a "source close to the family."
