Beskrivelse
A pandemic struck the UK with a vengeance in March 2020 and whilst everyone was aware of it sweeping through Europe with catastrophic results, nobody was prepared for the impact it would have on life as we know it in the UK.Scott developed flu-like symptoms on 17th March, which was 6 days before Boris Johnson, the UK Prime Minister, announced a lockdown that would change our lives forever. This has had a profound impact on everyone's lives, least of all for those who have succumbed to it. There is no cure. The symptoms and infection itself are random and unpredictable. All you are given in hospital is Amoxicillin, paracetamols, oxygen and water. Whether you survive or not simply depends on how your immune system reacts to it.This is his story which takes you from the initial symptoms to being hospitalised and a haphazard recovery which may take years to fully complete. Every case is different and unique, and what he saw and experienced was simply shocking in parts and a revelation.He says, "It has been a harrowing experience that will never leave me and one that I feel compelled to share".
