Famous Russian writer Boris Akunin (real name: Grigory Chkhartishvili) has been infected with the coronavirus.

“I’m not going to be on Facebook since I’m in bed with a fashionable disease. I’ll definitely share my impressions as soon as get a little better. (SPOILER: fear of coronavirus is much more horrible than the coronavirus itself. You need to be careful, but there is no need to panic),” he wrote on his Facebook page.
