She says the virus has left her 'permanently disabled'
A young Covid survivor who spent a month in coma has spoken out on how the virus 'ruined her life'. In July of 2021 Shona Abel, 23, contracted the virus and she said that initially her bout of illness felt "pretty normal".
She now hopes that her story will help her find other young Covid survivors who had to go through similar hardships. Recalling her experiences, Shona said: "In 2021 in July I got Covid. it was pretty normal, I was okay. But it got progressively worse and then I ended up in hospital with it. "I'm still recovering from it. I was in a coma from the 18th of July until around the 21st of August I think. I was in for a long time in a place I didn't know and it was quite scary.
"It took her like six hours to get to me because she doesn't drive so it was kind of worth the pain just to see my mum again."
