LONDON - A 106-year-old great-grandmother, thought to be the oldest patient in Britain to beat the novel coronavirus, was discharged from hospital to applause from nurses and health workers.
She was admitted to hospital in mid-March with suspected pneumonia and diagnosed with Covid-19 soon afterwards. But she battled the virus and won. "She has always cooked for herself too, although she likes a cheeky McDonalds every now and then. I haven't told her they are closed," said her granddaughter Alex Jones, 40.
