Actress Rachel Matthews, star of Disney’s Frozen 2, is the latest celebrity to reveal she has tested positive for the coronavirus and says she went into quarantine after noticing the symptoms in herself over the last week.
On Monday, the 26-year-old Matthews, who voiced the role of Honeymaren, the member of the Northuldra who becomes Elsa’s friend, opened up about the diagnosis and shared a timeline of her symptoms in a series of posts on her Instagram Story, explaining that she;
“only got tested because I had been around a confirmed case.”
“Hey guys, I tested positive for COVID-19 and have been in quarantine the last week,” Matthews, who voiced the role of Honeymaren in the Disney film, wrote.
“Unsure of what the next step is (been getting mixed info so will keep you posted) but obviously will remain in quarantine until told to do otherwise.
“I’m feeling better, but I will be posting some info that I hope will be helpful to some. Please feel free to reach out and ask me any questions,” Matthews explained.
“I really would love to help in any way I can. Again, let’s please be mindful of our decisions — now is the time to be smart and responsible. Let’s take care of one another!!”
“Our country is very behind, and we don’t have much of a system in place. I only got tested because I had been around a confirmed case and had been showing symptoms.
“BUT receiving a test that shows you’re positive really doesn’t change much. It’s not like you receive a specific medication once positive so please, if you have symptoms at all but can’t find a test please just treat yourself as if you are positive (you most likely are). Rest, drink lots of liquids and SELF QUARANTINE.”
“This obviously doesn’t apply to everyone. Some people are at higher risk and will take different precautions,” Matthews added.
Other celebrities to test positive for coronavirus include Forrest Gump star Tom Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson. Yesterday actor Idris Elba also told fans he had tested positive.
