"Hello everyone! I'm feeling better today. My fever is gone! I hear people can't figure out where I currently am. I'm in London!

"How do I know it's coronavirus and not just a flu? I did a test for coronavirus which came back positive," Kurylenko, 40, wrote on Instagram on Wednesday.

 

"What are the medicines that doctors prescribed as treatment? NONE! I was told to take paracetamol in case my fever was too high and if I was in too much pain," as she listed a number of vitamins and supplements she takes in an effort to boost her immune system.

Kurylenko also posted her selfie wearing a surgical mask.

She first revealed her positive COVID-19 test on Sunday.
