Kenyan Man Hospitalized with Covid-19 in France Says He Has Recovered

Kenyan Man Hospitalized with Covid-19 in France Says He Has Recovered

A France-based Kenyan man who was recently diagnosed with coronavirus says he has recovered from the disease.

Stephen Kinuthia released a video from his hospital bed last week, saying he would not have survived if he was not taken to the hospital.

He added that he was depending on tubes to deliver oxygen to his lungs, as the virus made it impossible for him to breathe.

“If they remove these oxygen tubes, my condition would deteriorate at once,” he noted.

He pleaded with Kenyans to treat Covid-19 seriously, saying the disease is real and does not choose who to infect.

“What I can tell you Kenyans, this virus is real. I can tell you for a fact that if I was not brought to the hospital I would be dead. Protect yourself, people, and family,” he advised.

Kinuthia has announced he has recovered from the illness but says he is worried that some people are not taking the virus seriously.

“I woke up stronger and healing from this deadly virus. Thank God, the Danger is behind me now. I thank you all for what you are doing for humanity through prayers,” he said.

“Please I beg you, Stay Safe, protect yourselves, your families and others.”

“Watch your lifestyle, do some simple body exercises every time you are free, move your body…overweight, obesity, Hypertension, etc. raise your risks to COVID19. I came from the tunnel of pains and darkness of death but God decided, I’m still needed in the society to give a living testimony,” he added.

    If people are serious they should pay attention to this guy. Been there done that on corona is the best message in modern lifetime...but the ignorant in Kenya and elsewhere especially the drunkards continue to party behind locked pub doors both in the village and cities..wait until corona hits that muratina will be useless and kwegakwega will be overnight affair and forgotten per new directives.
