PETALING JAYA: Miss Universe Malaysia 2020 Francisca Luhong James has shared how anxious she felt when she tested positive for Covid-19 and her experience in recovering from the disease.
The 25-year-old took to social media to share her personal journey from being told she had Covid-19 and how she had coped with it. When I received the result, I realised Gosh, I guess it was my fault . I did everything – I wear masks, sanitise (and) wash my hands, but it happened. The best way to solve it is to accept it and follow the standard operating procedure (SOP) of what to do next, she said in an Instagram post on Wednesday (Jan 20).
