Is this a new technique to stay away from the public by saying you have Covid-19? Please come out of hiding and answer our questions and get together with your brothers and give us our money back.

Why private hospital? who will pay the bill? Is he staging quarantine due to no options available to salvage the country ? Is he hiding to get away from promised Avurudu relief to people?
