An NHS nurse told her sister to 'follow in my footsteps' just before she died from coronavirus. Areema Nasreen, 36, was one of the youngest healthcare workers to die from coronavirus when she passed away at the start of the pandemic.

The mum-of-three died in intensive care at Walsall Manor Hospital, where she worked, on April 4 last year. Before her death, she begged her younger sister Kazeema Afzal to 'follow' her path and train as a nurse.

Almost a year to the day since she died, Kazeema, 33, has qualified as a healthcare assistant and now works on the same ward her sister used to be on.
