“It all started with a runny nose for me. It turned into sinusitis, very typical of me because I have chronic sinusitis. From that point on, I felt a bit tired, I didn’t have the tell-tale symptoms like sore throat and fever.” This is how NOVA meteorologist Gergana Malkodanska described her collision with COVID-19.

She clarified that she did not know
whether everyone with a runny nose should have a PCR test,
but he did and it turned out to be positive. “I think the virus hits the weak spots, my weak spot is the sinuses and that’s why it tricked me, giving me the illusion that it is something completely normal, but it turned out to be not exactly that,” Malkodanska explained.
She added that
the second day after the positive test he lost his sense of smell and had difficulty breathing and stitches in the chest area,
fatigue, dizziness. The illness was accompanied by a mild cough without fever.

“I had mild symptoms and continued to receive treatment. All my relatives were tested, including my son. They were all negative. However, we found the virus in the summer. Then my husband and mother tested positive,” she added.
Malkodanska said she was being treated with an antibiotic and a blood thinner, a low dose of a corticosteroid and vitamin D.
