"I wore a mask. I used hand sanitizer. One time, when the world was starting to open up, I decided to forgo wearing my mask in public. One. Time. And I ended up getting it. People are saying it’s like having the flu, but I’ve had the flu, and this is absolutely not that," she wrote.

She said she completely lost her sense of taste and smell, and she is currently smelling about 30 percent of what she used to.

Her persistent symptoms include dizziness, extreme fatigue, impacted sinuses, upset stomach, nausea, vomiting, and fever.

She urged the public to do their part and wear a mask.

"I’m lucky. Because I didn’t die. But people are. Please wear ur mask. It can happen any time. And it can happen to anyone. Even that one time you feel safe," she said.

Camp is known for her role as Aubrey in hit film "Pitch Perfect."
