Coronavirus: Patient credits dexamethasone with saving her life

Katherine Millbank was given dexamethasone, a cheap and widely available steroid treatment which UK experts believe is a major breakthrough in the fight against coronavirus.

Mrs Millbank, from Buckinghamshire, left hospital on her 55th birthday and is now able to go for short walks and cycle rides with her husband Paul Millbank.
