A 106-year-old woman has become Britain's oldest survivor of coronavirus after being released from hospital.
Great grandmother Connie Titchen battled the virus for just under three weeks and was given a clean bill of health by doctors at Birmingham City Hospital this week, the Telegraph UK reports.
