Purab Kohli Tested Positive For Coronavirus Along With Entire Family, Reveals They Have Now Recovered

The novel coronavirus has caused panic all over the globe. And why should it not- it’s highly contagious and has affected hundreds and thousands across the globe. In fact, the number of cases in India is now over five thousand and hundreds have already died from the disease. Precautions should be taken to not contract this virus, but even if one does, early treatment can cure it. Actor Purab Kohli just assured us that with his Instagram post.

Talking to social media, the Rock On and Noor actor revealed that he had tested positive for the novel coronavirus along with his entire family. He also revealed that they were constantly in touch with a specialist and now, after two weeks, they have recovered. The actor wrote, “Hey guys, we’ve just had a flu and given our symptoms our GP says we were down with Covid 19. Pretty similar to a regular flu with a stronger cough and a feeling of breathlessness. Inaya got it first and very mild. A cough and a cold for two days. Then Lucy got it more in the chest, quite similar to the cough symptom everyone has been talking about. Then me, i got a solid cold for one day which was horrid then it vanished and this irritating cough set in for 3 days. Three of us had only mild 100-101 temperatures and fatigue. Osian got it last with a 104 fever for 3 nights. Also a runny nose and a slight cough. His fever disappeared only on his 5th day.
We were constantly in touch with the GP on the phone. Apparently everyone in London is getting it and its rampant here, and a few people we know have gotten it.
Just wanted to share it with you if it helps reduce the panic a little to know someone who has had it and is fine. On Wednesday last week we were out of self imposed quarantine and are not contagious any longer. We were doing 4 to 5 steams and salt water gargles a day, ginger haldi honey mixtures to sooth the throat really helped. Also warm water bottles on the chest really helped relax the chest. Hot baths helped the fluie feelings. And of course lots and lots of rest even now after two weeks we can feel our bodies still recovering.
Please stay safe. I hope none of you get it but if you do, know that your body is strong enough to fight it. Seek proper advice from your doctors as intensity of each case is different as was in my household alone. And please stay home and rest the body as much as possible.
Lots of love.”
