A Sydney father-of-four struck down by coronavirus has recalled his harrowing ordeal in a desperate plea for everyone to get vaccinated in a confronting video from his hospital bed.
Khaled Elmasri, 47, was rushed to hospital and almost ended up fighting for life in intensive care because he struggled to breathe.
Almost one week on, his condition has improved but still remains in hospital with a breathing tube inserted in him as he issued a powerful plea to Sydney's Arabic community.
'Of course, I know and knew Covid-19 is a real disease, but I don't think that before now, I took it seriously enough,' Mr Elmasri said from his hospital bed.
