Young Scots teacher left unable to read books after crippling long covid battle

A Scots teacher has been left unable to read books after a crippling long covid battle. Melanie More, 28, struggles with a variety of cognitive and physical issues - leaving her 90 per cent housebound.

The former languages teacher is grieving the life she once lived after being forced to give up her dream job due to her declining health. Once an active person who loved travelling and yoga, Mel has had to come to terms with the significant changes in her life since she "became disabled overnight".

She initially tested positive for the disease in September 2020 after a number of colleagues at St. Andrew's RC Secondary School in Carntyne caught the virus. But Mel was the only one who did not make a full recovery.
