Coronavirus survivor Danny Egan knew exactly what he wanted to do after being discharged from hospital – give his wife a kiss. The 73-year-old grandad was one of the first two previously ventilated COVID-19 patients to go home from Swansea’s Morriston Hospital. The remarkable recoveries were marked by dozens of staff who lined the corridors outside ward H to send off Danny and 48-year-old David Courtney-Williams, a charge nurse on ward 12 at Singleton Hospital, with a rousing round of applause.
