A Co Down man is trying to get back to his old self after being diagnosed with long covid early last year.
John Cairns, 43, from Comber, first developed mild cold-like symptoms in January 2021 and after he began coughing, he did a PCR test which came back positive.
On the same day, his 12-year-old son Robbie was rushed to hospital with suspected meningitis but tested positive for coronavirus too.
