Maria Rico and her daughter Anabel Sharma were both admitted to Leicester Royal Infirmary on the same dayThree years on from the first Covid lockdown, families across the UK are still reeling from the after-effects of the pandemic. The BBC spoke to one from Leicestershire, for whom the consequences of the virus are still very raw.
Maria, who had moved to the UK from Spain in the 1970s, had lived in the same house as Anabel, her husband and three sons.The virus, Anabel said, had "ravaged through" the family at a frightening speed. Anabel's sister Susana was brought to her mother's bedside while wearing personal protective equipment.
"My mum asked them to take her mask off and they said, 'Once we take this off, that will be it. You won't have very long'."We had about five minutes with her when she was able to speak, then she lost consciousness.
