Former Olympic Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt decided to go into self-isolation after taking a coronavirus test on Saturday, he announced Monday.
The eight-time Olympic gold winner shared a video on Twitter to confirm that he took the coronavirus test and does not have symptoms.
"I did a test on Saturday to leave [Jamaica] because I have work. I am trying to be responsible so I am going to stay in and stay here for my friends," he said.
"Also, I am having no symptoms so I am going to quarantine myself and wait on the confirmation, to see what is the protocol and how I should go about quarantining myself," he added.
