ALABAMA – When Alabama House Minority Leader Anthony Daniels saw the fear in his wife’s eyes last week, it was the first time he thought he might die from COVID-19. It wouldn’t be the last time. Daniels described his two-week battle with COVID during an interview on the Alabama Politics This Week podcast, saying he “really thought it was the end for me.”
“It was terrifying, it truly was,” said Daniels, 38, who is in good physical shape with no underlying health conditions. “When I saw the way my wife looked at me, with the fear she had, that was the worst part. And to be honest with you, there were several days where I thought I might not make it.
“Even today, I’m well past the 10-14 days that they say is the window for this thing and I’m still not right. I struggle going up and down stairs. I still don’t feel well, get tired very easily.”
