READERS have praised a Covid-19 survivor left intensive care two months after he first arrived. Tim Dack, 49, of Market Street in Dalton, was left fighting for his life after contracting Covid-19 – but after 63 days he has finally left intensive care to the sound of applause. Mr Dack was taken to Furness General Hospital in January where he spent 39 days sedated and on a ventilator as he fought for survival. Mr Dack said he was ‘humbled’ to have been cared for by the staff in the ICU, who lined the corridors to applause him as he rang a bell to celebrate his victory when he was wheeled out of the unit last Thursday.
