At 33, Dmitriy Stuzhuk does not belong to the so-called crown 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. Now the Ukrainian is dead.

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. There he woke up the second day with a swollen throat and breathing problems, but did not 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.

He had problems with the cardiovascular system and was unconscious, wrote Sofia Stuzhuk, his ex-wife, who also runs a very successful Instagram channel. “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, he explained. Doctors tried to resuscitate him. A little later, Sofia Stuzhuk only had to announce the death of her ex-partner. She had split from Dmitry only six months earlier, not least because he is said to have cheated on her multiple times. The two have a son and two daughters together; the youngest is nine months old.
