Greta Thunberg urging young people to follow 'stay at home' orders after experiencing coronavirus symptoms.
-- the 17-year-old climate activist -- says she spent the last 10 days in isolation after coming down with what she believes is COVID-19.Thunberg says she started to feel symptoms -- fatigue, shivers, sore throat and cough -- when she returned to Sweden from a trip around Central Europe roughly 2 weeks ago. Her father, who also traveled with her, had similar symptoms but"much more intense.
In Sweden, Greta says, people are not allowed to test for coronavirus unless they need emergency medical treatment -- so instead of clogging up the healthcare system, she self-isolated instead"in a borrowed apartment away from my mother and sister." "I have therefore not been tested for COVID-19, but it’s extremely likely that I’ve had it, given the combined symptoms and circumstances."
