Soft Cell frontman Marc Almond feared his vocal cords had been damaged forever due to the coronavirus. The 63-year-old, known for hits like Tainted Love and Say Hello, Wave Goodbye feared the worse after being struck down with the virus.
He said: “When it first happened I was sick for a couple of weeks with Covid. It was pretty awful to be honest, I was very worried for a few days and even though we're five months later, even now I still get symptoms occasionally. “I'll feel fantastic for a few days and then I get breathing problems and was very fatigued." He continued: “I wasn't as bad with the taste and smell symptoms but it was very scary and worrying for a while.
