The highly contagious coronavirus continues to spread all over the world, and an MMA fighter is now among those who have tested positive for COVID-19.
In a recent interview with Combate, Bellator welterweight and UFC veteran Erick Silva revealed that himself and his family all tested positive for the sickness and are recovering together in their home, while practicing social distancing for the past two weeks.
Other than the fighter, his wife, two sons, sister-in-law, and his in-laws all tested positive and are quarantined in their home in Rio de Janeiro. Thankfully, none of them had any more serious complications, says Silva.
