Coronavirus spread fear of Sheffield carer who went untested
Alison Taylor has tested positive for coronavirus antibodies, despite never experiencing any symptoms
She now fears she may have worked while contagious and even visited her mother, who later died with suspected Covid-19. Miss Taylor, who is employed by an agency, worked at four different homes before regular testing was introduced for care workers and residents without symptoms. Miss Taylor said:"I've continued working throughout with no symptoms so I don't know if I've passed it on or not.
She said she last saw her 82-year-old mother, who had Alzheimer's disease, just before mother's day, in March.
