Holed up in her Atlanta mansion, rapper Cardi B has been sharing updates about her self-isolation due to the coronavirus pandemic. Many celebrities have gone silent about the pandemic, but not Cardi!

The entertainer recently posted a video in which she makes some good points on the mixed messages that the general public is getting concerning COVID-19.

Cardi B: People Are Getting Mixed Messages On COVID-19

If #45 is getting on a podium and saying, ‘Hey listen, if you do not have any symptoms … do not get tested, because we do not have enough tests to test everybody … but if a celebrity is saying, ‘I don’t have no symptoms … and I’m positive for coronavirus,’ that causes confusion,” she said on her IG.

That causes people to say, ‘Wait a minute now, I don’t have no symptoms but I know I went out that day. I might just have it … I”m scared because I’m around my kid, I’m around my grandparents … I might just have it. What should I do?” she said.

She also highlighted the major class lines around COVID-19 that nobody is really talking about.

“The general public, people who work regular jobs, the middle class, the poor …they’re not getting treated like the high — the ones that are up here (she raises her hand), the celebrities and everything — they’re not getting tested for coronavirus [especially not] the next day.”

Another hypocritical thing Cardi B brings out is that, if you’re under 30 and have a cold, helath professinoals are saying that if you don’t have that cold – or similar symptom — for eight days, they won’t test you.

“If you’re positive, they will tell you to quarantine in your home and don’t come back to the hospital] untli your temperature is 100-something degrees,” she says. 

Cardi says she doesn’t feel that’s right. Also a lot of people live in close quarters and can’t 

“If you’re sending me home and I have the coronavirus, I”m most likely going to give it to my spouse, my kids, anybody that’s around me.”

She also touches on the fact that celebrities have the money to pay for a COVID-19 test, but regular people don’t. So what’s the solution she says?

“I feel like the government should .. charge that [S..] to the game.”
