Richardson, njengoba enalolo hlobo lolwazi lomuntu siqu olubonakalayo. emzimbeni wakho kungakubeka engcupheni yokwebiwa komazisi.
Ukuthi unethemba lokuthola u-inki ukuze ugubhe i-vax yakho noma ufuna nje i-tat entsha noma ngabe uyazibuza: Ingabe kuphephile ukuthola i-tattoo ngemva kokugomela i-COVID-19? UDkt.

Lokho kusho ukuthi, "Ukuthola umuthi wokugomela i-COVID kungasindisa ukuphila ngokoqobo, ngakho-ke angikukhuthazi ukulinda isikhathi eside ukuze uthole isibhamu sakho," esho.
