DJ Steve Laviniere, the longest-staying patient in the hospital as a result of

Britain's longest hospitalized patient with COVID-19 spent his third Christmas away from his family, but his twin brother still hopes to return home this year. Steve Laviniere, 59, and his twin brother Bobby, both well-known music DJs in London, contracted the virus in March 2020 after playing a concert in Madrid and being put on ventilators.

Ndërsa Bobby u hoq nga respiratori pas shtatë ditësh dhe iu deshën dy muaj për t’u shëruar nga virusi, Steve pësoi dështim të shumëfishtë të organeve dhe inflamacion të trurit dhe mbetet në spital. Ai nuk është në gjendje të ecë dhe duhet të ushqehet përmes një tubi. Pavarësisht se Steve ka kaluar gati tre vjet në spital dhe ka kërkuar kujdes gjatë gjithë kohës, Bobby thotë se qëndrueshmëria e vëllait të tij është një ‘mrekulli’ dhe se ‘çdo gjë po ecën në drejtimin e duhur’.

DJ was put into a coma, caused by a rare neurological condition called Acute Hemorrhagic Leukoencephalitis (AHLE). Bobby claims that people with AHLE do not survive and believes it is a 'miracle' that his brother is still alive. Meanwhile, we recall that the United States of America is imposing restrictions on travelers from China due to the increase in cases of coronavirus. This measure was previously implemented by Japan and Italy, and now America is joining them. In the Asian country, infections have spread rapidly since a few weeks ago, official Beijing decided to ease restrictions against COVID-19 in the wake of mass protests.
