Good Morning Britain presenter Alex Beresford has revealed that he is “bedridden” with covid-19.
The 41-year-old shared the news with his followers on social media. In a tweet, he said: “Been in bed since last week with Covid. Feels like a really bad flu.
“I’ve been actively wearing my mask and washing my hands these last few months because I was on projects I couldn’t fall out of, but I know I relaxed up these last 2 weeks and here I am!
“I wouldn’t like to imagine how much worse I would be had I not had the vaccine.”
