Novel Coronavirus or COVID-19 is finally declared as a pandemic by the WHO (World Health Organization). By far, the deadly virus has taken down many lives and many people around the world are petrified even to head out of their homes, just to avoid getting affected by the virus. Amidst the coronavirus scare in the country and the world, Sonam Kapoor who is known to voice out her opinion on the ill-doing by someone took to her social media to call NBA player Rudy Gobert ‘irresponsible’.
On Twitter, Sonam Kapoor re-tweeted a tweet made by The Washington Post that read, “NBA players Rudy Gobert mocked the coronavirus by touching reporters’ mics and phones. Then he tested positive.” After reading the post made by the news portal, Sonam Kapoor went on to tweet, “Irresponsible,” calling NBA player Rudy Gobert irresponsible for his actions.
Meanwhile, according to the tweet by the news portal, Rudy Gobert made fun of the rapidly spreading coronavirus with the media. The NBA player joked with the media representatives and reporters present at the news conference at Utah Jazz’s scheduled game in Oklahoma City by making sure he touches all the microphones and recording devices placed in front of him just before he left, later being detected positive for the virus.

Needless to say, the NBA players' actions were surely irresponsible and we totally agree with Sonam Kapoor. On the other hand, with almost more than 50 COVID-19 cases detected positive in India, after Parineeti Chopra took to social media to spread awareness about the deadly virus, Sonam Kapoor also requested fans to take necessary precautions. Sonam also asked fans around the world and the country to Stay Safe!
