Steve White had been ill with COVID-19 for 92 days, doctors gave him a 1% chance of survival, and now he was discharged and returned home. Steve White, 56, the father of two children, has returned to his home in Bromyard, Herefordshire, after being connected to the assisted breathing apparatus for days.
On March 19, Steve White arrived at Hereford Hospital in a rather serious condition. Gradually, his body gave way and he ended up in the Intensive Care Unit. He went into a coma and was kept alive only by machines. His family began to prepare for the funeral and waited overnight for the doctors to give him the fatal news.
But on Thursday, June 18, Steve White was discharged. On the same day, doctors named him a national superhero because he fought the deadliest virus for the longest time, killing more than 42,600 people in the United Kingdom.
His stepdaughter, Lorna Townsend, 38, called the ambulance on March 19 and told the Daily Mail that at the time, COVID-19 patients spent an average of only eight days in hospital. In mid-April, the nightmare began and the family was called to the hospital almost daily to say goodbye to Steve, whose condition deteriorated overnight.

Hunchbacked, with tears in her eyes and emotion in her throat, Dorothy Campbell came to the Life Care Center in Kirkland, Washington to see the man who had been her shadow for 60 years. A young man comes to grab her arm and guide her to the window behind which she waits impatiently, "like a candle in a cuckoo's nest," Gene Campbell, her husband.
The old woman looks up from the ground and recognizes Charlie Campbell, her only son. He tries to smile at her, but a stream of tears floods his wrinkled cheeks. The man was diagnosed with COVID-19 or SARS-CoV-2 after staff at the Kirkland nursing home where he was unable to isolate the retirees well enough from the deadly microbe, in front of which they are safe victims. In vain the federal authorities have launched an investigation and want to find out the culprits of the contamination of the elderly.
For Gene and Dorothy, time is running out and every moment can be the last for them. The Kirkland Asylum has become the epicenter of coronavirus in the United States with 6 deaths out of a total of 14 recorded nationwide. Most elderly people at the medical center suffer from chronic diseases and are safe victims of coronavirus contamination. Gene puts her trembling hand on the phone and calls Dorothy. He tells her that he loves her and that she feels good. He makes a discreet sign to Charlie and the boy understands that his father has just told him with his eyes that he doesn't think he will live long and that Dorothy will need all his care. They will never touch each other again because Gene doesn't want to make his wife sick. He resigned because he knew she was safe.
