If you've seen Betty White trending on Twitter, don't panic. The beloved 98-year-old actress is doing well amid the cornoavirus outbreak.

All of the tweets worrying about White, made her trending, which then worried countless more.

A representative for White told TODAY on Thursday that "Betty is fine."

She just probably won't be throwing a party and inviting everyone she knows anytime soon. The greatest gift will be from her continued safety.
