I have been in the hospital with covid pneumonia for

five days and

I will

soon begin to recover," the singer writes.

he did not want to stay home and fear becoming infected, but decided "to start working, traveling, acting at the risk of getting sick."

"I don't regret it," he says.

The diva, who will turn 49 this Friday, was going to play Isabel de Valois in the opera "Don Carlos" with her husband Yusif Eyvazov and Ildar Abdrazakov, among other stars.

The presentation of the opera, with which the

I got to the hospital on time and they gave me assistance

. Everything is going to be fine! The devil is not as fierce as they paint him," emphasizes the famous soprano, who also assures that her husband Yusif "has antibodies and somehow passed the disease "without realizing it.

He also reveals that his

son

Tiago is fine and asks his fans not to worry.

"Don't worry.

They won't knock me down so easily

. I mean I'm more tired of all this hassle associated with testing, quarantines, and intimidation of people than the virus itself. I'm glad this is over for me." , concludes his message Netrebko.
