"Hello
everyone!
I've
been
shooting
for
Dijo
Jose
Antony's
"Jana
Gana
Mana"
since
the
7th
of
October.
We
had
strict
protocols
in
place
with
regard
to
Covid
regulations
and
associated
safety
measures.
As
is
the
norm,
all
involved
in
the
shoot
were
tested
before
the
schedule
started
and
the
last
day
of
shoot
in
the
courtroom
set
we
had
put
up,
tests
were
repeated.
Unfortunately,
the
test
results
this
time
came
back
positive
and
I
have
gone
into
isolation.
I'm
asymptomatic
and
am
doing
fine
now.
All
primary
and
secondary
contacts
have
been
advised
to
isolate
and
get
tested.
Hoping
to
recover
soon
and
get
back
to
work
ASAP.
Cheers
and
thanks
for
the
love
and
concern.",
