Stand-up comedian Vir Das has tested positive for Covid-19. He says he as mild symptoms of coronavirus and has isolated at home. Being his comic self, every situation is an opportunity for cracking a joke and so is his being confined to a room. Vir Das joked he is thinking of taking up embroidery during his quarantine days. He took to Instagram to share his diagnosis and wrote, “Right, I’ve tested positive for Covid-19. Mild symptoms. Aches and a sore throat. Isolated at home. Had only been in contact with two people in the last month and thankfully they are both negative.”

With so much time at hand and three pillows and quilt around him, Das says he is considering embroidery. He said, “Now I am in a room. I have three pillows and a quilt. I’m seriously considering embroidery. Depending on how long this takes, I may wind up with no quilts and 6 pillows, or like 2 quilts. If I had to choose a market, I’d choose quilts over pillows, more exclusive. Almost everyone has a pillow they love. Not everyone has a nice quilt.”

In this long note about pillows and quilts, which one is better and how to use the other, Das concluded, “The point of all this is, wear a mask and get boosted. Hope you and your family are safe.”
