Three-week-old baby Peyton, thought to be Scotland’s youngest covid-19 patient, has recovered from the virus and has been discharged from hospital.
Tiny Peyton touched the nation’s hearts when she featured in last night’s BBC News report on the incredible efforts of staff University Hospital Wishaw.
Peyton was born eight weeks premature on March 26 and was delivered by c-section after mum Tracy Maguire was diagnosed with pre-eclampsia.
The tot was being cared for in an incubator in Wishaw’s neonatal unit when Tracy, 27, and husband AJ were told on April 15 that their 3lbs 11oz baby had tested positive for the killer bug, despite having none of the tell-tale symptoms of the condition.
