While speaking to the Sun.Co.UK. a source said, "This patient is the talk of public health officials. His case would be funny if it wasn't quite so serious. The man confessed what he'd been up to in Italy, and that his wife has no idea." The source also revealed that the wife thinks her husband caught COVID-19 on her business trip.
"Despite his infection he is expected to survive the outbreak, unlike his extra-marital relationship. He thought he had the perfect alibi to carry out his affair, but hadn't reckoned on the coronavirus meltdown. The patient is just relieved he got home before flights were cancelled - that would have taken some explaining," the source stated.
The source also said that the man was in a panic state not because of his health but more with the fact that about his extramarital affair. A nationwide lockdown has been instituted in Italy, which has witnessed nearly 60 percent of the deaths due to COVID-19.
