Indian tennis player Sania Mirza has revealed that she had tested positive for coronavirus at the beginning of this year, but she has now fully recovered.
She also revealed that staying away from her two-year-old child was the toughest thing she faced after testing positive for Covid-19. She also said that the virus is no joke and everyone should take every precaution possible.
“Just a bit of info as to what’s been going on since the year began. I had contracted Covid-19. I am healthy and absolutely fine now by the grace of the almighty but I just wanted to share my experience I was lucky to not have any major symptoms for the most part of it, but I was in isolation and the toughest part was to stay away from my 2-year-old and family. I can’t even imagine what people and their families are going through when people are sick in the hospital all alone and by themselves,” Sania Mirza wrote on Twitter.
“It was scary as you aren’t very sure what to expect and hear so many different things and stories, you get a new symptom every day and the uncertainty of it is extremely hard to deal with not just physically but mentally and emotionally as well. I just want to say after having been through it, was fortunate to be more or less ok throughout it all, but to be away from my family was one of the scariest things, to not know when I’ll see them again, this virus is no joke, I took all the precautions as I could but still contracted it ..we must do everything we can to protect our friends and family.. wear your masks, wash your hands and protect yourself and your loved ones..we are in this fight together,” she added.
