A human rights organization says that a jailed Iranian Instagram star — known for her transformation into a “zombie Angelina Jolie” — is currently on a ventilator after contracting the coronavirus in custody.Lawyers for Fatemeh Khishvand, known on Instagram as “Sahar Tabar,” had asked for her to be released amid the country’s COVID-19 outbreak, but a judge refused to grant bail, according to the US-based Center for Human Rights in Iran.“We find it unacceptable that this young woman has now caught the coronavirus in these circumstances while her detention order has been extended during all this time in jail,” human rights lawyer Payam Derafshan told the organization on Wednesday.Khishvand, 22, was arrested in October amid a nationwide crackdown on Instagram celebrities. She faces a slew of charges including blasphemy, inciting violence and encouraging the corruptin of young people, for expressing herself on her widely followed Instagram account.Instagram is the only social media app available in Iran, with Facebook and Twitter banned. Khishvand shot to fame in 2017 after claiming that she’d had “50 surgeries” to look like her favorite Hollywood star — and posting selfies showing her hollow cheeks, inflated lips and cartoonish upturned nose.The shocking, emaciated look was actually created with the help of makeup and digital editing. Last year, she shared images with her tens of thousands of followers showing what she actually looks like.Judge Mohammad Moghiseh repeatedly declined to release her on bail as the coronavirus spread across the country — and is now nowhere to be found, Khishvand’s lawyer said.Jail officials in Tehran denied that the Instagram star had caught the illness — a claim her lawyer scoffed at.“It seems like it has become a habit for the authorities to deny everything,” Derafshan told CHRI.“It makes no sense to deny this. The prison director should acknowledge the infection and admit she has been hospitalized.”The attorney called on authorities to release Khishvand and other inmates detained on non-violent charges amid the outbreak.“Many women in Shahr-e Rey Prison have contacted my colleague and me about the terrible situation inside the prison and the fear that exists among the inmates [due to the coronavirus],” he said.“We want the authorities to issue a general order to allow these prisoners to be temporarily released. In the absence of judges who are sick or not coming to work, this is the only solution.” There have been at least 77,995 reported cases of the virus in Iran, with 4,869 deaths.

While the world self-isolates to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, Angelina Jolie discussed how important it is to check in on each other.The 44-year-old actress and Special Envoy of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees spoke with California Surgeon General Dr. Nadine Burke Harris in a video conference for Time, where she is also a contributing editor.With stay-at-home orders in place in almost every state in the country, both Harris said it was important both to maintain those orders, but also to keep in touch with their friends and loved ones. 'I think it is so important that people hear that,' Jolie said. 'To love each other, check in with each other.'She added, 'Be there, be a support group, keep your eyes open whether you are a teacher or a friend.' 'I really do hope people hear this, and they do reach out, and they do pay more attention, and they are not sitting in a moment when they think, "Well maybe, but it’s not my business,"' she continued.The actress added that because kids aren't going to school right now 'teachers can’t see the bruises and people aren’t identifying what is happening within some homes.'Harris also asked Jolie what motivates the actress to, 'continue to stand as a witness and to not look away,' and also what she does for 'self-care.'Jolie said there was, 'a time in my life when I became more aware of what was happening around the world,' and she started to 'open up' and hope she was 'being useful.' She added that she used to write in a journal a lot and that she was crying all the time, but she met a grandmother who saw her crying and told her, 'I don't need you to cry. I need you to help me,' which motivated her to help. Burke-Harris was named the first ever Surgeon General of the state of California by Governor Gavin Newsom in January 2019.She revealed that California has been the first state in the country to do, 'broad scale training' for primary care doctors to do 'routine screening for trauma.' 'All of the research shows that the single most powerful antidote to the impacts of trauma and adversity is nurturing, caring relationships with others — safe, stable and nurturing relationships.”The surgeon general also pointed out it was important to believe victims of domestic violence, saying, “All you have to do is be there for a person. All you have to do is believe them when a victim comes forward.”'You don’t have to fix it, you don’t have to solve it. You don’t have to worry about not being enough,;' Burke Harris said. 'You just have to be willing to be there and listen and to be that shoulder and those open arms.'
