The heartbroken daughter of a woman in her 60s who died from Covid has spoke out about her family's loss saying the virus is 'indiscriminate'.
Susan Fisher, 64, and a mother-of-three was admitted to Sydney's Liverpool Hospital with other health issues when she caught Covid from a nurse who was not fully vaccinated.
'She was very distressed about the way she was always coughing and the way the virus ultimately made her feel out of control,' her daughter Linda Fisher told 9News.

Ms Fisher had already been in hospital for 45 days before she tested positive for the virus last week.
Linda said the virus moved quickly after her mother was diagnosed, and her condition declined rapidly.
Linda, her brothers and her uncles were only able to say goodbye to her via videocall earlier this week.
On Friday, NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said the state had recorded another 291 cases of coronavirus, along with the death of Ms Fisher.
She is the 79th person in the state to succumb to the virus since the start of the pandemic.
Chief Health officer Dr Kerry Chant confirmed the woman had contracted Covid-19 from a nurse.

'There are a large number of people impacted by that. I extend my apologies and sympathies to the family.'
The nurse who passed the virus on was not fully vaccinated and Ms Fisher, a community worker from Macquarie Fields, had not had her first dose.
Linda said her mother had been scared of blood clots from the AstraZeneca vaccine.
'It's indiscriminate it doesn't care how old you are, once you get Covid you better watch out,' she said.
