That's commitment, girl! After contracting the Chikungunya virus while in French Polynesia with friends, Lindsay Lohan decided to stay on vacation. On Saturday, the actress took to Twitter to share an important message following her diagnosis.
"Before I got chikungunya. Use [bug] spray please. God bless," she wrote alongside a serene pic of herself cruising on a jet ski around her luxury beach resort. A golden sky, sweeping mountains, and rows of over-the-water cabanas can be seen in the backdrop. It certainly does look like a lovely time. A series of crying emojis and praying hands completed her message.
Chikungunya is transmitted to people by mosquitos and its symptoms include fever, headache, muscle and joint pain, swelling, and rashes. Though it's rarely fatal, there is no vaccine to prevent the virus or medical treatment for the condition once it's contracted. (In other words, her advice is good: Wear bug spray!) Despite her condition, however, the 28-year-old star is clearly determined to enjoy her getaway.
Just a few days after revealing she was infected, Lohan posted another update. In the Instagram shot (seen at the top of this post), the actress poses in between two of her fellow travelers, Fabienne Bratschi and longtime bestie Patrick Aufdenkamp. Sporting a spaghetti-strapped tank, aviator sunglasses, and a smattering of bracelets, Lindsay looks serene and happy.
"In good faith with good people. I refuse to let a virus ruin my peaceful vacation. Be safe and happy on the new year," she captioned the snap before adding, "And a positive, healthy new year." She repeated her use of praying hands in this post. Guess she's feeling extra-spiritual these days.
