Four-time Russian champion in figure skating Maxim Kovtun told that he fell ill before the Sochi ice show, where he had to undergo necessary medical procedures.
On Monday, Kovtun, 27, posted a photo on social media in a hospital with an IV.
– I have symptoms of the virus, but I have to perform. A little sick, but that’s okay. Did all the necessary procedures, now much better. I put a dropper to facilitate the practice of physical activity. Of course, I will speak. The temperature is very low, you can say it’s not there,” Kovtun told .
Kovtun is a three-time winner of the European Championships (two silver and one bronze), two-time silver medalist of the World Team Championships and winner of the Grand Prix series. The athlete ended his career in 2019.
