American actress, Debi Mazar has revealed that she tested positive for Covid-19 (Coronavirus) after her husband and two daughters felt the symptoms, about a month ago.
The 55-year-old actress who is best known for her roles in “Goodfellas,” “Entourage” and “Younger”, made this known on her Instagram page.
Mazar said she thought she might have either the flu or Covid-19 and asked a “doctor/friend” if she could get tested for the latter. She was told no because she didn’t meet the criteria, including not having traveled lately or been with someone who had recently been diagnosed.
After a test was conducted on March 17, she was sent home and told to quarantine herself until the result are out. The medical test, however, came out positive.
She wrote;
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, on 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 and I hadn’t been with someone who had actually tested positive. I found this kind of CRAZY criteria for an 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.
