Para ello, el personal médico de la institución concedió al paciente su deseo de ver el mar, para lo cual lo trasladó en su propia cama hasta el malecón, desde donde el hombre miró con alegría.

Este hecho captó la atención de los transeúntes y de la prensa internacional, que hizo eco de esta noticia y contó la historia de don Isidre, quien salió victorioso de la dura lucha contra el nuevo coronavirus.
Isidre Correa fue hospitalizado por coronavirus el pasado 9 de abril, pero su salud empeoró debido a su diabetes y sobrepeso, y el día 14 de aquel mes fue ingresado a UCI. Esta semana abandonó esta unidad luego de 50 días.

El Hospital del Mar indicó que este tipo de salidas terapéuticas no son nuevas y que las solían hacer como parte de su programa de “humanización” de la UCI. Sin embargo, tuvieron que interrumpirlas en plena pandemia debido a la saturación de sus salas.

Rita Reynolds, 99, is believed to be the oldest person in Britain to recover from coronavirus

As the coronavirus crisis continues, it’s more important than ever to highlight the best in the people around us. Here is the latest dose of positive news.

 Ninety-nine years and counting 

A 99-year-old great-grandmother is believed to be Britain’s oldest person to have recovered from coronavirus – and it’s all down to her love of marmalade sandwiches, her family joked. 

Rita Reynolds, from Bramhall in Stockport, fell ill with Covid-19 on 25 March, and her family were told to expect the worst after her conditioned deteriorated. 

Staff at Abbeyfield care home kept Reynolds comfortable and ordered end-oflife drugs but against all expectations, district nurses said they believed she had recovered.

Henry Phillips, one of Reynolds’ grandchildren, said: “I was certain that was it for her. She’s 99 so obviously she’s frail – I didn’t think there was any way she would recover from it. But she seems to have done it.” 

He jokingly added: “I don’t know how she got through it. I don’t think she has ever eaten a vegetable or fruit. She lives on marmalade sandwiches and biscuits. But she’s never smoked or really drank.”

Reynolds was a driver during the second world war, and aged 21 she survived a bomb that landed outside her home in Liverpool by hiding under the table, after refusing to get in the air raid shelter because she wanted to read her book. 

She’s now looking forward to turning 100 in July.
