World-record sprinter and eight-time Olympic gold medallist Usain Bolt has tested positive for coronavirus and is self-isolating at his home in Jamaica.

"Just to be safe I quarantined myself and just taking it easy," Bolt said in the message that he appeared to have taped himself while lying in bed. It was posted with the caption"Stay safe my ppl".

Bolt said he took the test on Saturday, the day after he celebrated his birthday at a bash where partygoers danced to the hit"Lockdown" by Jamaican reggae singer Koffee. Fans wished Bolt a speedy recovery on social media -"drink up your ginger tea," one wrote - although some accused him of carelessness.
