Because coronavirus rates in the United States remain high, Rwanda is one of only 30 countries currently open with restrictions to U.S. citizens.
Last Wednesday, while traveling to Rwanda, Ms. Jordan told her followers that she was "definitely corona haha free," with a crying emoji face.
Her trip got off to a good start, as she posted a video with silverback gorillas on Instagram, and videos of herself dancing and eating on TikTok.
However, everything changed when she tested positive for Covide-19, and in tears said: "literally the f'ing government came in my place, and came and dragged me away from everyone I was with, and I don't speak the language, and they locked me in that f'ing room. And I can't leave.
She added: "I don't know how long I'm going to be here, and they won't tell me anything. »

According to Jordan, the Rwandan government did not tell her how she should be isolated in her room and she was unable to smoke medical marijuana, which helped her cope with anxiety for many years.
Some fans criticized her decision to travel abroad in the midst of a pandemic, and later in a comment on her TikTok Ms. Jordan said, "The United States should not let anyone travel out of the country.
However, after being stranded for four days, Ms. Jordan learned that she had a false positive.
She posted another video to TikTok, happily crying and said, "I just received my second return test results and they are negative which means their first test was false. They were wrong all the time. I can go!
On Monday, she apologized on Instagram and said she would not travel until there is a coronavirus vaccine.
She said, "I would like to apologize for traveling in the meantime, because I know it's a very wrong time to travel, and I'm completely wrong to do it, and I've learned my lesson one hundred percent. »
"Trust me. I've been sitting here in this room, locked in this room for the last four days thinking about it, and I'm not going to travel any more during this time.
