Latest coronavirus updates Kerry

Kerry man Michael Prendergast, 28, told Newstalk Breakfast his experience with the illness in the last few days.

He said: “I was so ill, it is almost indescribable. It started with an extremely mild headache. I came home on Monday and I had absolutely no symptoms and then on Tuesday, the shortness of breath, extremely high fever – it was just exacerbated every night.

“I had extreme rigors – that is your body’s reaction to infection – I was shaking and by Wednesday night, I was having convulsions in bed.”
