I had to be helped up from my chair when I needed the loo Leicester, I’ve never felt so ill and lifeless.

I didn’t eat solid food for the peak week, I was throwing up at the drop of a hat.

I lived on Lucozade for a fortnight.

If I hadn’t had this 22 years ago I’d have been far more blasé about original Covid but this served as a warning.

I was a very fit 38 year old at the time and it just slaughtered me.
