A dad says he "died" three times while battling coronavirus in intensive care. Carl Young, 56, beat the deadly disease in hospital after he was put in an induced coma and onto a ventilator for 12 days.
The father of four now faces a two-year recovery from Covid-19. Carl, a lorry driver, says he owes his life to the "amazing" NHS staff at both Hull Royal Infirmary and Castle Hill Hospital.
Doctors told him it is a "miracle" he survived, reports Hull Live. Carl, from Willerby, Hull, said: "I was told by the nurse that death had come for me three times and I fought it off. "The nurse said 'do you know you actually passed three times?' "What they did for me was unbelievable, I can't thank them enough, they are amazing. "I am still very weak.
