You can get well, says teacher who overcame coronavirus

An Israeli woman who recuperated after contracting the coronavirus says the illness “wasn’t severe,” and calls on the country to relax.

“I had a fever and chills, but it passes,” says Sharon Ganish, a teacher from central Israel, who was the 14th person in Israel to be diagnosed with the disease.

“I want to calm people down. That’s my goal now. This isn’t a severe disease,” Ganish says in an interview on Channel 12 news.

“Even if you get sick, you can get well,” she says.

Ganish says her family is still not “back to normal,” after her recuperation, but they are working on it.

She recommends reaching out to any friends or family who contract the disease — by phone or text message — in order to show them that they’re not alone.
