UMIROVLJENI odvjetnik Geoffrey Woolf koronavirusom se zarazio u prvim tjednima pandemije, a nakon čak 306 dana provedenih u bolnici jučer je pušten kući.

Vjeruje se da je 74-godišnji Britanac proveo jedan o najdužih perioda na bolničkom liječenju od covida, piše The Guardian.

Prva faza njegovog liječenja trajala je 127 dana, od čega je 67 proveo na respiratoru. Iz bolnice je ispraćen pljeskom, nakon čega je prebačen na neurološku rehabilitaciju za govor i fizikalnu terapiju.

I can't tell you how thrilled I am to be able to write this: after an incredible 127 days in hospital since first getting covid, 67 of them on a ventilator, Dad was finally discharged from hospital today. His whole team was there to clap him out - what a beautiful moment. pic.twitter.com/GISJsmVA1a

Na rehabilitaciji je proveo dodatnih 179 dana, a jučer je pušten kući.

"Bila je to vraška borba", rekao je jedan od njegovih sinova. "Njegova prva šala je bila da je izabrao težak način za preskočiti zadnju godinu Trumpovog mandata, ali da je svejedno vrijedilo."

Absolutely thrilled to say that after six months at a neurological hospital following his stay at the Whittington - a grand total of *306 days* in hospital with covid and its after-effects - Dad finally made it home today. Here he is meeting the newest member of the household: pic.twitter.com/sPezO0yFLt
