Mzansi reacts after vaccinated Dr Musa catches Covid-19

Recently married medical doctor and TV host Musa Mthombeni is battling the coronavirus again.

The doctor, who recently tied the knot with Liesl Laurie, shared that although he was vaccinated when healthcare professionals got the jab a few months ago, he still contracted the virus.

“Your boy isn’t feeling great,” he wrote.

He later said: “It’s Covid. I knew something wasn’t right. My symptoms were a headache and back pain. Tingle in my throat was non-specific because of the change in weather. I got my vaccine months back and so far, all my symptoms are very mild. A little headache here and there. Sore throat and that’s it really.”

He also said that he will keep everyone updated about his journey.

According to the National Institute for Communicable Diseases, you can still contract the coronavirus after getting the vaccine: “Individuals may still be at risk of contracting Covid-19, although the disease will likely be milder in comparison to those who are unvaccinated. More evidence is required to confirm whether Covid-19 vaccines provide protection against asymptomatic or mild disease. Presently it remains unclear whether vaccinated individuals can still spread the disease to others, therefore caution is still required.”

Aaaah. It’s COVID. I knew something wasn’t right.

My symptoms were a headache and back pain. Tingle in my throat was non specific because of the change in Weather https://t.co/d6S2Nk6zXj
