Sharing her experience of fighting the virus, Genelia wrote on Instagram, “Hi, I was tested COVID-positive three weeks ago. I was asymptomatic for last 21 days. With God’s grace I tested COVID-negative today. As much as I count my blessings that my battle with this disease has been much easier but at the same time I must admit that these last 21 days in isolation have been the most challenging for me to deal with.”
She also shared one way to fight the disease. Genelia wrote, “No amount of FaceTime and digital immersion can kill the evil of loneliness. I am happy to be back with my family and loved ones. Surround yourselves with love… That’s true strength and it’s all one needs. Test early, eat healthy, stay fit – the only way to fight this monster.”
