Singer Billie Eillish recounts near death experience after contracting Coronavirus

19-year-old American recording artiste, Billie Eillish revealed in a recent interview that she could have died of Coronavirus if she had not taken the vaccine.

In an interview on SiriusXM’s “The Howard Stern Show”, the Grammy award winning teenager recounted her experience with the virus.

Eilish also said she’s still experiencing long-term COVID symptoms.

The songstress had this to say:

“I think if I weren’t vaccinated, I would have died, because it was bad.

“When I say it was bad, I more just mean that it felt horrible. But really, in the scheme of COVID, it was not bad. You know what I mean? When you’re sick, you feel f–king horrible.

“I didn’t die, and I wasn’t gonna die, but that does not take away from how miserable it was. It was terrible. I still have side effects. I was sick for, like, two months almost.”
