'I will get jab after nightmare Covid infection'
Covid infection rates in the north-east are the now the highest in England, with eight areas now in the top 10 worst-affected parts of the country.
Sandra Forsyth, from Stockton, regretted not getting vaccinated when she contracted Covid.
"It's a nightmare. Out of breath. Just awful," she told the BBC's Hugh Pym.
"I was hospitalised for a day and we've had the ambulance out to me as well because it's all on the chest."
She said she would get a jab as soon as possible following her experience.
