Coronavirus: Couple reunited after seven-week battle against disease

Many of the most seriously affected coronavirus patients are spending weeks being rehabilitated in hospital after being discharged from intensive care.

Since then, our special correspondent Ed Thomas has followed the story of one patient through recovery to reunion with his partner.
