Kuwaiti actor Mishari Al-Balam has been transferred to the intensive care unit of Kuwait's Jaber Al Ahmad Al Jaber Al Sabah Hospital after contracting Covid-19.
According to Kuwaiti media, the Maa' Hest Qalam actor's health deteriorated after he contracted the virus late last week.
Kuwaiti TV personality May Al-Aidan announced the actor's hospitalisation, writing that his health had suffered because of low levels of oxygen in his blood. Hypoxaemia is one of the more severe symptoms of Covid-19.
