get well soon bro.

realy

And he has been mixing with the rest of the team...he should have been tested before arriving the camp. Same with others...

all these detecting machines are not working effectively jare... these nonsense things have wrongly detected many healthy people to positive...

I won't be surprised if He is tested again in Nigeria and it comes out negative...

Speedy recovery Alex.
