According to her, getting tested early could save one’s life.

“Many have had covid and treated it as fever, malaria etc and luckily they’ve been fine….( note that symptoms are different and viral loads vary). However, a problem with that is they have probably gone on to infect others, since they were not monitored or guided. The average span for a covid infection if not severe is 2 weeks (14 days ) when you should totally isolate so as not to infect others,” her post read.

The actress further advised her followers to make sure they take their vitamins daily, wear a face mask, maintain physical distancing and wash hands regularly.

“I’ll also like to thank the amazing lead Dr who treated me, Dr Folarin Opawoye and Finally, my husband whose Love and Faith nursed us back to health. To God Alone be all the Glory. Thank you all,” she wrote.

According to the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), Nigeria has recorded 53,865 cases, with 41,513 discharged and 1,013 deaths recorded as of Sunday.
