Battling Malaria Was One Of The Lowest Moments Of My Life – Aubameyang

Arsenal striker, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang has come out to say that malaria is the worst disease he has ever battled.

He recently revealed this during an interview with the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, the disease gave him the worst feeling he has ever felt in his life, and it was his worst moment of being sick since he was born.

He added that his fever all day and all night were absolutely terrible and drugs even had no effect on him for sometime.

His words, “I was feeling a bit down.”

“I thought that it was the travel.”

“As you know, going to Gabon is not so close to here. I felt just a bit tired, especially against Liverpool, but I thought it was just because of the travel.”

“I don’t know what the percentage of my form was at that moment. But definitely, yeah, I felt a bit tired.”

“I was feeling very, very bad.”

“This was the worst moment of being sick in my life because it was really hard.”

“I had three days in a row, fever, all day and all night, non-stop. Even the paracetamol and stuff had no effects on this.”

“After that, I spoke to the doctor and I said I needed to go to the hospital because I had travelled to Africa so maybe it was something like malaria.”

“I stayed in hospital for three days and I think I lost four kilos. It was a really bad moment and I think my family was a bit scared to see me like this.”

“After that, I had some good treatments and the staff did very well and the doctors as well in the hospital.”

“I am lucky that we took it in the end at the right moment because sometimes with malaria, if you don’t treat it quickly, you can have some big problems.”
