Usain Bolt’s gotta halt. News just broke that the sprinter tested positive for COVID-19.

He recently celebrated his 34th birthday and this is definitely not a ‘gift’ he was expecting. His agent confirmed the news and added that he isn’t showing any symptoms.

Jamaica’s Prime Minister, Andrew Holness said that no special treatment will be given to anyone who has been found to break the rules stemming from the birthday bash, as sources say that no social distancing was practised by attendees of the birthday party (the video is no longer available).

Prior to the test result, Usain posted a video on his social media saying that he’s going to quarantine himself and wait to see what happens. He also urged people who had been around him to also quarantine themselves. Two notable footballers, Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling and Bayer Leverkusen’s Leon Bailey were seen to be in the birthday celebration that adhered to no rules.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Stay Safe my ppl 🙏🏿

A post shared by Usain St.Leo Bolt (@usainbolt) on

Jamaica now has over 1,600 cases and the number of daily-confirmed cases soared to 116 on August 25, 2020, its highest record so far.

While we hope Usain gets well soon, we also hope that the public always keeps in mind the importance of wearing a mask and maintaining a social distance.

Let’s work together and #FlattenTheCurve, people!
