Bollywood actor Purab Kohli who got fame from the movie Rock On has recently revealed that he and his wife Lucy Payton, daughter Inaya and a year old son Osian Nur had been tested positive for Coronavirus.
In his long Instagram post, Purab revealed symptoms and said, “Hey guys, we’ve just had flu and given our symptoms our GP says we were down with COVID 19. Pretty similar to the 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.”

He further said, “We were constantly in touch with the GP on the phone. Apparently, everyone in London is getting it and it is 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.”
He also adds that they used to do 4 to 5 steams and saltwater gargles a day. The water consisted of ginger haldi honey’s mixtures to soothe the throat really. “Also warm water bottles on the chest really helped relax the chest. Hot baths helped the flu feelings. And of course lots and lots of rest even now after two weeks we can feel our bodies still recovering.”
He concludes saying, “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 the 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. #CoronaVirus #Covid19 #Recovery #DontPanic #Breathe #Calm”
