Many personalities who did not believe the gravity of the novel coronavirus are waking up to face reality.
A number of them had said the media was exaggerating the virus that was first discovered in China.
The lastest to make such a confession is popular Ghanaian actress, Lydia Forson.
She was one of the people who thought the Ghanaian media was blowing the effect of the coronavirus out of proportion.
In a tweet, Lydia Forson admitted that she was wrong and the virus is destroying lives.
“To be honest when #coronavirus started I really wasn’t that worried. I was part of the people who thought the media was blowing it out of proportion(still do a little). I only started to worry when I realized that our health facilities couldn’t handle an influx of patients”.
