Mangcala says he spent at least four days in ICU fighting for his life.
Actor Mlamli Mangcala has urged South Africans to take Covid-19 seriously after battling the virus in hospital.
“It was not child’s play. It was a wake up call,” said Mangcala, who buried a family member who died from Covid-19 last month. The Queen actor, known for his role as Captain Sthembiso Radebe, said he started losing his senses of taste and smell, and coughed a lot before being diagnosed with Covid-19.In a video shared on Instagram on Friday, the actor who was in a hospital, can be seen with an oxygen mask and a white towel wrapped around his head.
He captioned the video: “Covid-19 defeated. When winning both the battle and war #MlamliCovid-19 victory.”
