A 106-year-old woman leaves UK hospital after recovering from coronavirus

AKIPRESS.COM - Connie Titchen, who is a 106-year-old great grandmother, may be the oldest person in the United Kingdom to beat coronavirus, CNN reports.

Three weeks after testing positive for Covid-19, Titchen was discharged from Birmingham City Hospital in the UK.

"She is our oldest patient to beat the virus -- and may well be the oldest in the country to do so," the Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust said Wednesday.

Nurses at the hospital lined the corridor to applaud the great-grandmother of eight as she was wheeled out to be sent home.
