Nollywood actress, Mary Remmy Njoku has taken to social media to address the stereotype surrounding the novel coronavirus disease.
She stated that people should not be scared to let people know they had or still have COVID-19 because it is not a family secret or a spiritual problem.
According to the actress who has battled the disease, telling people about it doesn’t reduce the victim’s recovery rate.
The actress wrote,
“Corona isn’t spiritual, it is beyond your village people.
So don’t be afraid to let people know you had or still have it.
Save lives!”
