“I’m feeling better … but I still don’t have a lot of energy,” Mayim Bialik, sometimes emotional, said today in an update on his condition after announcing yesterday that he has Covid.
“It’s no joke,” the actress, who is vaccinated and reinforced, said about the virus in an Instagram post on Monday. “It’s very exhausting, the exhaustion is very special. I had mononucleosis when I was in college and exhaustion comes like this where you can’t stay awake, you can try to stay awake but suddenly you have to sleep.
“It’s not the same as the flu,” he added. “Don’t hear about ‘flu’. This is a very different type of virus … Please be careful. Be careful.”
Fortunately for Jeopardy fans! and Call Me Kat, there will be no impact on either show. Danger! has just shot and the next season of Call Me Kat is not airing until September.
Bialik was moved today when he spoke of the fear he was feeling, to which he also alluded on Monday.
“Something I didn’t anticipate is that I have a new level of anxiety about going out. I’ve definitely been very attentive and while traveling as safely as I could … Part of me feels guilty for going out. Guilty. I feel sad. And I’m worried about the world and our health in the world again. “
He said that, perhaps as a result of staying there, “it’s been super emotional and thoughtful … I’ve been so upset.”
The former Blossom star, who has asthma and thyroid disease, continued: “The impact of this on mental health, especially for those of us who are already anxious or predisposed to catastrophic thinking, says a lot of fear. And I know it will happen. The intensity will pass. “
As for the brighter side, the actress says her Big Bang Theory co-star Melissa Rauch “sent me a packet of amazing soup and throat tea,” which she was doing as she spoke in front of the camera. Bialik also indicated that he has been taking turmeric for inflammation, colloidal silver and apple cider vinegar gums which he believes were endorsed by Alyssa Milano.
“Please be careful,” Bialik told his followers at the end of his video. “I hope everyone is safe. I’m going to drink this and then I’ll fall asleep.”
