Just yesterday, we heard that actor Arjun Kapoor had contracted the novel Coronavirus. Soon after, reports stating that his alleged girlfriend, Malaika Arora had also caught the virus. While the actress did take to her social media to confirm the news today, her sister took to her social media to slam people who shared Malaika’s reports online.
Taking to her Instagram stories, she shared a picture of the COVID-19 test that was leaked online and said that it is highly insensitive and ridiculed the people for not respecting a person’s privacy.
She said:
My sister’s results have been posted on various WhatsApp groups, Facebook and other mediums! While she was hoping and praying for a negative test and was also preparing herself to get better this is what one has to deal with? How is this ok????????? What’s has happened to us humans sad sad state of affairs.
She added that people commented saying she ‘deserved it’ and put laughing emojis in the comments and asked why anyone would do that considering the crisis that the entire country and world is facing at the moment.
She questioned how the report was leaked in the first place and wrote, “The question is how did her report get out in the 1st place … How was it ok to disregard a doc / patient confidentiality. Let’s just respect what’s happening in the world today and stop this ridiculous naming and shaming syndrome! STOP!”
Here is what Malaika posted earlier today on her Instagram as she informed that she tested positive:
These difficult times do require everyone to be extra kind and compassionate. We wish for Malaika’s speedy recovery
