The 95-year-old monarch, who contracted the virus in February, admitted in a video call to NHS staff and patients last week. He said to them, “Someone is very tired and exhausted, isn’t he?” This horrible pandemic. “It’s not a nice result.” When Buckingham Palace announced that the Queen was positive in Windsor, it was said that she had “mild symptoms resembling a cold”.

He also retired from the Commonwealth Day annual service, albeit mostly due to mobility problems. However, it seems that like many who have been infected by Covid, the Queen – who has a triple puncture and has probably had her second booster injection to date – suffers from subsequent outcomes, including extreme exhaustion. This will undoubtedly add to the growing health problems of the last six months, which saw her in need of hospital treatment last fall and not being able to engage outside the palace walls for six months. He was finally seen in public at the Duke of Edinburgh’s thanks service late last month. Although she left this week’s Maundy Service in Windsor for the first time because of her mobility and handed over responsibility to the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, she stoically continued video calling and audiences. This week, the Queen – who will be celebrating her 96th birthday later next week – marked the opening of the Queen Elizabeth Unit at The Royal London Hospital, of which she is a patron, talking to staff and a former patient. The queen spoke to NHS staff and patients in a video call in which she shared her own difficulties while being treated for Covid in February. Wearing a floral dress with a pearl necklace, she said the staff work was “wonderful”. Nurse Charlie Mort said: “The amount of generosity shown to both patients and colleagues throughout the pandemic was astounding and the amount of kindness shown to us was inspiring. I think we will all be together because of that, forever. ” “It’s amazing, it’s not, what can be done when needed,” the queen said. Imam Faruq Siddiqi, a hospital priest, said the families “felt a sense of hope” when they knew their loved ones were visiting. ‘ “Although I did not do any miracles, I hope I was able to bring them some kind of consolation through my presence and prayers,” he said. The Queen held a hearing with incoming and outgoing defense secretaries at Windsor Castle on 16 February In a first for her reign, the 95-year-old monarch will be represented by Prince Charles at the Maundy Service on Thursday, April 14. The queen replied: “It was obviously a very scary experience to have Covid very badly, wasn’t it?” Mr Siddiqi said: “I think what made it worse was that they were alone. ‘Exactly. “So they were alone,” the queen remarked. Mireia Lopez Rey Ferrer, her older sister, said the intensive care unit was “unrecognizable” with so many patients. “As nurses we made sure they were not alone,” he said. “We held their hands, wiped their tears and provided comfort. “Sometimes I felt like we were running a marathon without a finish line.” “It must have been a terrible time for all of you,” the queen said. “Not seeing your families and also working so hard … That [was] “The unusual part was not that, not being able to meet your relatives and isolate yourself.” Asef Hussain, a former patient, explained how he and his family had been infected by Covid in December 2020. His father and brother were also treated in the Covid unit before they died. Elizabeth II with Admiral James Macleod and Lt. Gen.

Mr Hussain, along with his wife Shamina, said his brother was first admitted and died that day. He was taken to hospital after having difficulty breathing and slept for seven weeks. “As soon as I woke up I saw the great work done by the nurses, the doctors – the whole team here. They supported me and my family in a fantastic way. “Unfortunately, while I was sleeping, my father from Covid also died,” he said. ‘You are better now?’ the queen asked. “I’m getting there, I’m recovering, I’m much better,” Hussain said. Mr. Hussain’s wife explained how he prayed for his recovery in Zoom calls with his family around the world. “We pray for him, oh wonderful,” said the queen. He added: “I’m glad you are getting better. It leaves someone very tired and exhausted, doesn’t it, this horrible pandemic? “It’s not a nice result.” The monarch also spoke to the group behind the new unit building and burst out laughing when project manager Jeff Barley told her he had looted his “black book” to find people to help him. The queen replied: “This is wonderful, it is not. It’s very interesting, isn’t it, when there is something very vital, how everyone works together and unites. “Wonderful, it’s not like that.” Mr. Barley greeted the “little Dunkirk spirit” involved, pushing the queen, smiling, to say, “Glory to God still exists,” in laughter. The plaque was then unveiled and held high to show the monarch. Royal London Hospital has been serving the people of East London for the last 280 years. He received his royal title from the Queen during a visit in 1990 to celebrate the 250th anniversary of its inauguration at Whitechapel.
