Kim Domingo is COVID-19 positive
Kim Domingo has tested positive for the fast-spreading COVID-19 disease.
The actress shared the news on her Instagram last Monday, August 30, saying she got her test last August 27.
She told her followers,
“First of all, hindi ko inexpect na tatamaan pa ako. Pinagtatawanan na nga ako sa sobrang pag disinfect at pagiingat na ginagawa ko. Kumpleto din ako ng vitamins at fully vaccinated,”
Booted out
Furthermore, Kim was about to undergo quarantine by August 29 for the lock-in taping of the upcoming series Love. Die. Repeat.
Her role in the series would have been her return to television since the COVID-19 pandemic began.
However, Kim said she is now under home quarantine and will no longer be part of the show starring Jennylyn Mercado.
She recalled,
“Grabe ang iyak ko nung nalaman ko na hindi na ako makakasama sa show. Napaka wrong timing. Pero inisip ko nalang, may dahilan kung bakit nangyari ito.”
Words of encouragement
Then, Kim reminded her followers that the disease can strike anyone and they need to take extra precautions.
Also, she encouraged her followers to get vaccinated against the disease, saying,
“Kahit anong ingat mo, pwedeng pwede ka tamaan ng COVID. Hindi natin [siya] nakikita. Kaya kung meron kayo pagkakataon na magpa-bakuna, magpa-bakuna kayo. Isa din ako sa mga takot na takot magpabakuna dati,”
Moreover, Kim, who was hesitant to get the vaccine, eventually got injected after reading about its benefits.
“Makakatulong ang bakuna para mabawasan ang severity ng [COVID-19]. Buti nalang at fully vaccinated na ako at ang pamilya ko. Wala na akong lagnat, pero wala pa din pang amoy at panlasa. Pero still malakas pa din ako kumain. Mas okay na pakiramdam ko. Pahinga lang at iwas ma- stress.”
Finally, Kim vowed to finish her home quarantine until she tests negative for the virus.
She, then, thanked her friends and followers who showered her with love and concern over the matter.
