The model, 49, is currently in self-isolation and is using it as a time for self-reflection and said many people are currently living ‘in fear’.
Speaking to Access Hollywood, she said:Â “We can use this time to soul-search and reflect. We can’t come out the same way. We must not come out the same way.”
Naomi described COVID-19 as a ‘beast’ and said it is something we continue to learn more about each day.
She added: “We are in fear, of course we’re in fear. We have something that we’re not clear of it.
“We’re learning what this beast is and we have to learn about it like we learn about anything else and right now, it’s at the forefront of all our minds.Â
“We’re learning everyday and we have to be grateful to God for the doctors and the nurses and the hotel workers and the delivery people, God bless them.”
Naomi has shared her strict adherence to hygiene on social media and has previously posted photos of herself wearing face masks and gloves while travelling.
The London native explained she picked up the practice from working in Japan as a model.
She said: “The way I live my life, wearing a mask, which is what I’ve been doing for over 17 years, that’s just what I’ve done. I got that from working in Japan, I would say.
“We can’t live in regret of, we should have done this, we should done that, we are where we are now. We have to do our best to save lives.”
Naomi also spoke about her role as a judge on Amazon Prime reality series Making The Cut.
The show, which is hosted by Tim Gunn and Heidi Klum, features Naomi as a judge, and follows 12 designers competing to become the next global fashion brand.
Of her role on the show, Naomi said: “I’m a consulting producer and it’s more Tim and Heidi [Klum]. It doesn’t stop me from being my authentic self, whether the camera is rolling or not, I’m going to explain what I say.”
