Sister blind nun André tested positive for the coronavirus on January 16. She was kept in isolation at her home in a nursing home in southern France, although she showed no symptoms. But now it is no longer considered contagious, writes TT.
– We consider her declared healthy. She is very calm and is looking forward to celebrating her 117th birthday on Thursday, says nursing home spokesman David Tavella.
The birthday celebration will be with a small group of neighbors, due to the spread of the coronavirus.
On Tuesday, the sister was so alert that she could be on the French television channel BFM. There he answered the question of whether he was afraid of Corona.
– I wasn’t afraid of dying. I’m glad to be here with you, but I wish I was somewhere else, to meet my older brother and my grandparents, he replied.
The French nun is the oldest person in Europe and the second oldest in the world, according to the Gerontology Research Group. The world’s oldest is Kane Tanaka in Japan, who turned 118 on January 2.
The 20 oldest in the world are all women.
