A French nun who is Europe’s oldest person has survived Covid-19, just days before her 117th birthday.
Sister Andre tested positive for coronavirus on 16 January but didn’t develop any symptoms. She told local media she “didn’t even realise I had it”.
She isolated separately from other residents in her retirement home in Toulon, southern France, but is now considered fully recovered.
Sister Andre, who is blind and uses a wheelchair, is now looking forward to celebrating her birthday on Thursday – although she is going to mark the occasion with a smaller group of residents than usual.
