A woman aged 106 is believed to be the oldest Briton to have survived coronavirus.
Connie Titchen has been discharged from Birmingham’s City Hospital after beating the deadly respiratory illness caused by the virus, which older people are more at risk of developing complications from.

So you're telling me that a 106 year old can go to hospital and be diagnosed?

Then there are all those dying at home because they refused to even go to a hospital. Beanz could have had the virus a long time ago and got checked when the hospitals were not busy so it would not have been a healthcare strain. Was he isolating from the start of March? Had he spread it to others and potentially killed them? Did he alert the authorities? Did he even have the virus? Nobody will ever know and maybe never have known had I not started this particular thread. Interesting how it all comes out in a Gandalf thread.
