"Hello everyone, I wanted to tell you that I have also tested positive for COVID. On Sunday, upon landing in Mallorca and with some symptoms, I tested negative for antigens. A few hours later, when a positive was confirmed in the equipment, I went to do PCR and I tested positive," Moya said.

"I am vaccinated with 2 doses and the symptoms have been quite strong in the last 24 hours, although without having to go to the hospital, now much better, I hope the worst is over."

"Be careful on these dates, do not trust only the antigen result if it is negative, nor that the symptoms are mild, in my case it has not been like that and many of those I know the same."
