Dmitriy Stuzhuk doesn’t really belong to the so-called risk group. He is young, his well-trained body is his capital. He considers Covid-19 to be an invention, until he tests positive himself.

He was 33 years old, healthy and well trained, and didn’t even believe that Covid-19 existed. Then Dmitriy Stuzhuk himself fell ill. Now the Ukrainian fitness trainer and influencer has died of a coronavirus infection, as announced by his ex-wife.

Stuzhuk apparently became infected while on vacation in Turkey. He woke up there on the second day with a sore throat and breathing problems, but didn’t think about anything else, he wrote on Instagram. The next day his cough started, but he had no fever. Back in Ukraine, he tested positive. “I was one of those who thought that Covid did not exist. Until I got sick,” Stuzhuk warned his million fans. Covid-19 is not a short-lived illness, but it must be taken seriously.

The illness was so serious in the young man that he was hospitalized. On the eighth day, he posted the message with the warning and a photo with an oxygen mask. His values ​​are now so stable that he can leave Kiev’s crowded hospital to recover at home. But just hours later, his condition dramatically deteriorated.

Sofia Stuzhuk, his ex-wife, who also runs a very successful Instagram channel, reported that he had problems with the cardiovascular system and was unconscious. Doctors tried to resuscitate him. “I did everything I could to keep the father of my three children alive,” the 25-year-old wrote. But now it no longer depends on her. A little later, he only had to announce the death of his ex-partner. Sofia had separated from Dmitry only six months earlier, not least because he is said to have cheated on her several times. The two have a son and two daughters together, the youngest is nine months old.
