Die US-Schauspielerin Debi Mazar (55, "Good Fellas") hat das Coronavirus. Das verkündete sie selbst auf ihrem Instagram-Account: "Ich bin gerade positiv auf Covid-19 getestet worden." Zu einem Bild von sich auf dem Sofa schrieb sie außerdem: "Ich bin ok!" Ihr Mann und ihre beiden Töchter hätten bereits vor rund vier Wochen Symptome wie Halsschmerzen, Husten und leichtes Fieber gehabt, dies aber als einfach Erkältung abgetan.

Mitte März hätte dann auch sie Beschwerden entwickelt und unter hohem Fieber und Gliederschmerzen gelitten. Für sie sei es schwierig gewesen, einen Test zu bekommen. Ihr Arzt habe gesagt, dass sie nicht die notwendigen Kriterien erfülle und nicht in einem Risikogebiet war oder Kontakt zu einem nachweislich Erkrankten hatte. Eine Ambulanz hätte sie dann vor fünf Tagen doch getestet. Seitdem befände sie sich in freiwilliger Quarantäne.

I have just tested positive for Covid-19.I AM OK! About a month ago my entire home(husband and two teen daughters) got an odd bug- Low grade fever,headaches,sore throat,body aches,ears ringing and a dry cough.It cleared up quickly.Seasonal I thought?but it felt unusual/different... Two weeks later,March 15th,I woke up with all those same symptoms but super intense body aches,and 102.4 fever.I figured maybe I got the flu or..Corona?😬 I had had cocktails the evening prior,and smoked a few cigarettes. I figured I had jacked my immune system from having a fun night with friends.I called a doctor/friend to ask if I could get the Covid-19 test on 3/16.He said NO,I didn’t meet the criteria.I hadn’t recently traveled out of the country&I hadnt been with someone who had actually tested positive.I found this kind of a CRAZY criteria for a NY’er as I had taken the subway,gone to the theater,the grocery store,the pharmacy,hair salon,etc.I was the Mom who was trying to prepare the home and get supplies&bleach wipes,dry goods.extra food etc. Because we have Italian family in Italy and we follow the news closely,my biggest panic was why were they not closing schools in NYC &forbidding movement outside the home without permission,like China and all of Europe? Prospect Park yesterday,i hear was jumpin’! A friend told me that CityMD/Urgent Care in my neighborhood had test kits,which appealed to me as I wanted to stay away from the hospital. I went on 3/17.First I was tested for the flu-which was negative.Then they tested me for Covid-19. I was sent home and told to quarantine myself until I had results,which would take 3-7 days(in S.Korea it takes two hours) Well..today is day 5 and I just found out.Im hoping I’ve been through the worst of it already.Its very “morphy”.One day I feel crappy and the next I’m normal.Today my lungs are heavy,but I’m tough. I can breath,and I’m going to heal here,in my own home!My family is under quarantine for 14 days.They have no symptoms.I think we all had it possibly already?Who knows. Anyhow,stay home people!Protect yourselves&your loved ones.Build up your immune systems.Good Luck&God Bless us all! #alonetogether #physicaldistancing #stayhome

Sie hoffe, dass sie das Schlimmste bereits überstanden habe. Es sei ein ständiges Auf und Ab. Heute würden sich ihre Lungen schwer anfühlen. Sie sei aber zäh. Das Gute sei, dass ihre gesamte Familie komplett gesund sei.
