A Dublin man has beaten Covid-19 after being on life support in ICU for 26 days - the second time he has beaten a deadly virus.
Conor Cleary, 59, from Cabinteely, was greeted by his overjoyed family as he left St Vincent's University Hospital yesterday.
Remarkably, it is the second time that Mr Cleary has successfully fought off a deadly virus. He was on life support for three months a decade ago with swine flu. "Dad is a miracle man and a true hero," said his relieved daughter Rachel. "We are so grateful to the frontline workers at St Vincent's who saved his life.
We can't put into words what they did for him, my mum and our family. "We thank them for minding him when we could not be by his side.
