Tom Moore’s family is with him at the hospital, they say, but at the same time asking for peace.
He was something of a sunbeam story when he started going round in his garden against donations, which he passed on to the British health service , the NHS.
In that way, 100-year-old Tom Moore hoped to raise a small 10,000 kroner for the health service for their fight against the coronavirus. It went a little better than he had hoped, one can safely say without exaggerating.
Thus, he collected over a quarter of a billion kroner, which he donated to the British health service as a thank you for their fight against the corona infection.
Now the former army captain himself has been infected with covid-19. It informs his family, who have asked for peace and respect for their privacy.
They announce in the same embrace that Tom Moore is getting help to breathe, but that he is not hospitalized on intensive care.
Receives many greetings
The news of Captain Moore’s illness has not gone unnoticed. Thus he has received many greetings, also from the highest political level in Britain.
Among others, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has sent greetings to Tom Moore.
– I spoke with his family yesterday, and I can only say that Captain Tom Moore has been an inspiration to everyone in this country. Our thoughts go to him and his family.
