Five month Covid-19 patient leaves Royal Papworth Hospital

A father-of-two who has battled Covid-19 for over five months in a Cambridgeshire hospital said he is feeling “stronger every day” after being discharged. Rajinder Singh was admitted to Royal Papworth Hospital on January 31 and put onto ECMO, an artificial lung which oxygenates blood outside the body allowing someone’s lungs to recover while medical and nursing teams apply other treatments.
