Kapanlagi.com - This year, comedian Arafah Rianti had to celebrate Eid at Wisma Atlet because she was exposed to Covid-19. She also shared how she tested positive for Covid-19.

"So, on H-4 (before Eid), I heard that my friend tested positive for Covid, previously (I had) negative antigen test, but when I heard that my friend tested positive, I took a PCR test and it turned out to be positive too. So I decided to go to Wisma Atlet to prevent my family from getting infected as well," said Arafah Rianti during a virtual interview on Sunday (16/5).

1. Initially Didn't Feel any Symptoms

The star of the movie CEK TOKO SEBELAH initially didn't feel any symptoms. Arafah Rianti routinely took swab tests while filming and the results were always negative.

"Initially, I didn't have any symptoms, I was very healthy, I could even drive my own car. Every time I filmed, I always took a swab test and all the results were negative," said Arafah Rianti.

She only started experiencing symptoms when she tested positive for Covid-19. She had a sore throat and lost her sense of smell.

"The symptoms appeared when I tested positive, my throat was sore, I felt dizzy and wanted to sleep all day, and I lost my sense of smell, I couldn't smell anything. I used a mosquito spray, I thought I couldn't taste anything, but my friend told me that I sprayed too much and my nose couldn't feel anything," she said.

Not alone, it turns out Arafah Rianti was exposed to Covid-19 along with one of her friends, namely singer Fatin Shidqia Lubis. Arafah Rianti said that recently she often met Fatin because they had a project together.
