Brittanya’s final appeal: “Corona should be taken more seriously”

One of Brittanya’s last posts on Instagram was an urgent appeal to all corona deniers: “I hope your 2020 is better than mine. I couldn’t eat or sleep for five days, but I drank 3 liters a day. I have so much pain. Corona should be taken more seriously. Please take good care of yourself. “

At that point she had hoped that she would recover from the insidious disease. “I know that God does not make me the most beautiful or smartest woman in the world, but one of the strongest who has made everyone in the world laugh so far. In all three that I have mastered. Whoever is with me knows no grief. Anyone who knows me can only laugh and forget their worries, at least for a short time. And I’m so proud of that. I’ll get through it, with God’s help. “
