Efron was flown to Brisbane, Australia from Papua New Guinea on a `life-or-death flight` with the assistance of medical professionals.

<br />
On Monday, Zac took to Twitter to thank those who had reached out in the past few days and confirmed he had contracted a disease but also assured he was now fine.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"Very thankful to everyone who has reached out. I did get sick in Papua New Guinea but I bounced back quick and finished an amazing 3 weeks in P.N.G. I’m home for the holidays with my friends and family. Thanks for all the love and concern, see you in 2020!"</p>
