The FLOTUS had recovered by sticking to a healthy diet of vitamins and had especially thanked caregivers for looking after her family. However, the first lady said she did suffer symptoms of the virus while she was infected with it.

"It seemed to be a roller coaster of symptoms in the days after. I experienced body aches, a cough and headaches, and felt extremely tired most of the time," she had stated.
