"Staff at the Royal informed my family that I might not survive the delivery because I was so weak. They allowed Joseph's dad to come in and see me but not my parents due to the risk of Covid."

It’s also reported that the boy was delivered 11 weeks before time and he is healthy. In more on the same story, The Echo reported that the woman is from Dovecot and that the staff initially told her that she might not survive the delivery.

Sophie headed to Facebook to share the article by The Echo and there are positive reactions to the viral post.

In a similar report regarding Covid-19, YEN.com.gh reported that a US woman on a ventilator for 60 days after contracting COVID-19 was about to get her life support switched off when she suddenly woke up.

Sixty-nine-year-old Bettina Lerman, who tested positive for the virus in September, woke up from the coma right before life support was turned off, CNN reports.

Speaking to the press, her son Andrew Lerman said she was unvaccinated, and after more than a month in a coma, doctors did not think she would make it.
