An exercise influencer died of Covid-19. Ukrainian Dmitriy Stuzhuk had over a million followers on social media and did not believe in the existence of the new coronavirus.
This week, the fitness instructor announced on Instagram that he had contracted the disease during a trip to Turkey.

When he returned to Ukraine he underwent tests and found out that he was infected with Covid-19, a disease that has caused more than 1.1 million deaths and 40 million infected worldwide.
“I was one of those who thought Covid didn’t exist … until I got sick,” wrote the Ukrainian “influencer” on Instagram.
A former denialist who felt the effects of coronavirus on the skin, Dmitriy Stuzhuk left a warning: “Covid-19 is not a short-term disease. It’s heavy ”.
The fitness instructor said that his condition was stable, despite having an oxygen mask, but the following day his death was announced by his ex-wife.
