Former RHOA Star Peter Thomas Has COVID-19: “I Can’t Wait For This Sh*t To Be Over!”

Peter Thomas The Latest To Catch COVID-19: “I Can’t Wait For This Sh*t To Be Over!”

Restaurant owner/former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Peter Thomas recently revealed to Instagrammers that he has been infected with the coronavirus. A visibly fatigued Peter Thomas took to social media from his bed to share how he’s coping with the virus:

“I’ve been in bed now for the last eight days…Everybody told me take the COVID test five times, and I was negative five times. On the sixth time, I was positive.”

Peter thinks he contracted COVID-19 by taking pictures with fans:

“People come up to me and ask me to take pictures all the time, and they want me to have the mask off and they wanna hug on me – ’cause they say they like me. I take those pictures, and every time I take those pictures I’m praying to God that I’m not gonna get this thing. But it caught up to me.”

Cynthia Bailey’s ex called his symptoms, “excruciating:”

“It’s the most excruciating pain I can think of…my stomach been a complete wreck it feels like the last eight days…constant cramping. The pain is crazy. Chills all day, all night. Waking up in cold sweat. Constantly have to keep my body hydrated. No appetite, diarrhea, throwing up – eight days in a row. I’ve gotta be in bed another seven days to take the test again, and I have to be negative twice before I can even think about going back outside.”

Perhaps Peter Thomas is rethinking his comments from this past April, considering he’s contracted the virus. He insinuated that COVID-19 media coverage was comprised of more fear-mongering than facts. Despite his previous message, Peter warned followers to protect themselves:

“I’m gon’ tell you something: wear your mask. Wear gloves. Practice social distancing…I want you guys to take this thing extremely serious, ’cause it’s not a joke…I can’t wait for this sh*t to be over.”

Get better soon, Peter!
