Those were the words of 88-year-old Port Elizabeth resident Kolekile Kwatsha, who recovered from Covid-19 after spending a week in Mercantile Hospital.
He said he had felt sick with flu symptoms in mid-June and his family had taken him to the doctor after he started feeling worse.“I don’t want to lie, the first day was difficult and I was confused and shocked. The coronavirus has killed a lot of people already,” Kwatsha said.“I have read and heard about the danger of the virus, but I accepted that I had it and I told myself that my body was not going to be a carrier for it.
“I want to tell the world that Covid-19 is real but if it’s not your time yet to die, the coronavirus won’t kill you,” Kwatsha said.
