Artiste and TV host Kush Tracey has tested positive for Covid-19.
The God Is In Control rapper said on her social media pages that although she wasn’t exhibiting any symptoms, she’d be taking a few weeks off to self-isolate.
“Fam, I have tested positive for Covid-19. We are all susceptible to this virus because it is here with us and it is so real for those who think it’s a joke. But so far so good; I feel fine at the moment and I thank God and am trusting Him to get me through this,” read part of her post.
She added: “Regards to work, I’ll be off-air and work for the next few weeks as I isolate and take care of me, but I will be updating my progress and this experience on my YouTube channel.”
She said that contact tracing is ongoing and encouraged people to stay safe by heeding the health guidelines issued by the government on prevention of COVID-19.
“Please if your body is feeling funny just go for testing. If I handled it, you sure will as well. Don’t be afraid; you might be asymptomatic like me at first yet you have already contracted the Covid-19...But the good thing is that we can overcome it; we can recover and we can get better,” she wrote.
The rapper also urged people to stop the stigmatization associated with the deadly disease by saying: “Covid-19 is not a death sentence.”
