George Clooney recently contracted and then recovered from malaria while doing relief work in Sudan. This isn’t the first time the actor has fallen ill from the virus. His publicist told the press this his second time fighting off the virus.
Clooney was in Sudan with the group Not On Our Watch, which he founded with Don Cheadle, Matt Damon and Brad Pitt.
Of course, Clooney has an optimistic approach to recovering from the illness, with his rep telling reporters:
“George is completely over the Malaria he contracted while in the Sudan during the first week in January. This was his second bout with it. This illustrates how with proper medication, the most lethal condition in Africa, can be reduced to a bad ten days instead of a death sentence.”
Bravo, George. Stay well!
