JAKARTA - Following Tom Hanks and his wife, Rita Wilson, the star of Quantum of Solace, Olga Kurylenko also announced that he was infected with the corona virus (COVID-19). The announcement was made by Kurylenko via his Instagram account on March 17.

In her upload, the Ukrainian actress shared a photo against a window in the house, peppered with the statement:

Locked at home after testing positive for COVID-19. I've actually been sick for almost a week. Fever and fatigue are my main symptoms. Take care of yourself and take this seriously!

The statement, written in English and Russian, received more than three thousand comments, which were dominated by messages of support. As Resident Evil star Milla Jovovich, for example, wrote.

“Oh, my God, I hope you get well soon. We always pray for you, ”wrote Milla.

Another reaction, Kurylenko's followers questioned why the 40-year-old actress was still at home. In fact, according to treatment procedures, every patient positive for COVID-19 must be treated intensively in the hospital. This was answered by Kurylenko.

Thank you to everyone who has sent me well wishes, I'm overwhelmed with everyone's kindness. I wanted to take this opportunity to answer the most common questions that I've been asked regarding Coronavirus. Why I'm not in hospital? Because hospitals are full and they are only taking patients that are struggling with life, if I understand correctly. I was told that if I get worse to call an ambulance. Where I got tested? In the hospital when an ambulance took me there after I called because my fever was over 39. How did I get tested? They took a swab from my throat. Where did I get coronavirus? Impossible to know. It could be anywhere. I could have touched a taxi handle and gotten it from there. It's on surfaces! For a week my temperature was stable 38. Sometimes up to 38.5. Today it's come down 🙏 Спасибо всем за подержку и за тёплые слова !!! Вот ответы некоторые из ваших вопросов: Почему я не в больнице? Потому, что больницы переполнены и забирают только людей которые борются с жизнью. Мне сказали что если станет хуже звонит опять в скорую. Где мне сделали тест? В больнице куда меня привезла скорая с температурой выше 39. Как сделали тест? Берут мазок в горле. Где я заразилась коронавирусом? Невозможно знать, так как это может быть где угодно! Он на поверхностях. Я могла открыть дверь такси и поймать его с дверной ручки. Неделю моя температура была 38-38,5. Сегодня она уменьшилась 🙏 #Coronavirus # коронавирусp #StaySafe

Broadly speaking, Kurylenko explained, the hospital was full to treat people who were really fighting for their lives. "I was told that if my condition worsened they suggested calling an ambulance," Olga wrote.

In the upload, Kurylenko also said that when he was diagnosed with COVID-19. At that time, he called the hospital because he felt a fever and his temperature was at 39.

The hospital took action by taking sputum from him to trace the illness he was suffering from. However, Kurylenko himself could not confirm where he contracted it. "It could be anywhere," he wrote. In fact, when he opened the cab door, maybe?
