 This is what we asked Lunga:

1. When did you test positive and what prompted you to get tested?

2. How did you feel? Describe your symptoms to us?

3. Do you know how or where you contracted COVID-19?

4. Were you scared at first?

5. Tell us what happens when you test positive? What is the process?

6. You’ve been very active on social media encouraging people to stay at home and also just generally doing your bit to keep our spirits up... what message do you have for the whole of KZN listening now?

7. Lunga, where can we find you on social media?
