I wasn’t feeling good last night, so I woke up this morning, went to the doctor, and got myself checked. Unfortunately, it turns out I have COVID,” he said, adding that he was in quarantine, as he was not hospitalized. I was so weak. I could barely stay awake,” she said. “They followed the doctor’s orders, and I pray that this will pass quickly so that I can return to normal as I am now.”
