Yet another WW2 vet survives C-19

Chip McIntosh went to a hotel to self-quarantine, and his sister, Marifrances, moved in to take care of their father.

"Unfortunately, about five days later, my father exhibited the same symptoms I did," Chip McIntosh said. "Fever, chills, cough."

Marifrances McIntosh also got sick.

"I've had the flu, and this was bigger than the flu," she said.

They decided not to take their father to the hospital.

"We felt the hospital was not the best place for him, given what was going on at the time," said Marifrances McIntosh.

The family relied on its nursing background instead.

"He's a strong man, and he's a fighter, and as a result of that, he pulled through, which we were very surprised and pleased, really," said Marifrances McIntosh.
