In a post shared on January 2, days after her admission, Kyanna said: I can barely move without losing my breath completely. I can just about talk in sentences. I m in and out of sleep but my breathing wakes me up. It feels like someone is stomping on my chest and back. It feels like I m going backwards – I guess things get worse before they get better. This is so real. The ward I m on is full. There are six nurses and healthcare assistants and 36+ patients. They re overwhelmed. Please be careful please be safe. I was and look where it got me.

A police investigation into an incident where a cyclist was taken to hospital with serious head injuries has been closed.
Police were called to reports a cyclist had fallen from his bike in Magpie Road, Norwich, shortly before 10.50am on December 15 last year.
The cyclist, a man in his 40s, was taken to the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital with serious head injuries.
Officers had been keen to hear from witnesses to the incident or anyone who had dash cam footage from the area at the time.
But following an investigation a spokesman for Norfolk Police said police have decided no further action is to be taken at this time and confirmed the case had been closed.
The pandemic is hard work - it is really tough on people. We are all doing the best we can. The thought of doing something to help in some way was my motivation. One day, when I have grandchildren, this is something I can tell them. I saw the news on Thursday about the efficacy and thought it was fantastic.
Also involved as a trial subject was Fred Warren, a 34-year-old research scientist at the Quadram.

He also said now was not the time to learn lessons, but Labour accused the Conservatives of “monumental mistakes”.
Those mistakes have been well-covered. Some are clear with hindsight, but many were pointed out at the time; not closing our borders to people from virus hotspots sooner, locking down too late, abandoning community testing early on, then spending billions on a track and trace system which couldn’t track and trace tens of thousands of people.
In fact, some would argue that from that moment in March where the prime minister proudly declared he would be shaking hands with covid patients - the country was behind where it needed to be in tackling the pandemic. And has arguably never recovered.
