Over the weekend, Sameera Reddy shared the news that she has been tested positive for coronavirus. Soon after that her social media pages were flooded with heartfelt messages from her fans and wishing her a speedy recovery. Many even asked an update about her family and Sameera had revealed that except her mother-in-law Manjiri Varde everyone tested COVID-19 positive including her kids Hans Varde and Nyra Varde. Sameera shared a photo of her children and started by writing, "Lots of people asking me about Hans and Nyra so here is the update."
About Hans, Sameera stated, "The past week Hans had high fevers, headaches, body ache, upset tummy and severe fatigue. It lasted for four days. It was very unusual So we tested him and he was COVID positive. I have to admit initially I did feel complete panic because however much you think you are prepared, you just never completely are for something like this."
While sharing about Nyra, the actor shared, "Immediately Nyra started showing symptoms. She had fevers and an upset tummy. I gave her a cold compress and paracetamol on SoS."
Sameera went on to write, "The most important thing is to be aware that the second wave is affecting many children but doctors believe that it has mild symptoms in most of the cases. Doctors are also recommending vitamin C, multivitamin. A probiotic and zinc (please check with your doctor ) I’ve done everything to make them comfortable and Both are in great spirits and back to being in masti mode. It’s important to remember that even though Your kids might get asymptomatic in a few days they still have to be isolated from people who haven’t been affected for 14 days to make sure it is not transmitted. Luckily my mother in law was not exposed and is living separately. She has tested negative. I and Akshai tested positive soon after the kids. We have started the medications, steam inhalation, saltwater gargles, breathing exercises, pranayama and eating wholesome meals and are diligently following our doctors' recommendations. This is the time to be smart and focus on what helps. Not negative. Not fearful. Just be alert to protect yourself and others. We have to be mindful of this. It is the only way. I will continue to make my happy content because positivity is my biggest strength right now. Stay strong. Stay safe."
