A teenager from North Carolina is showing progress after fighting COVID-19 for nearly 10 days, his family said.
Kaden Panico, 17, of Winston-Salem, was admitted to the ICU at Brenner Children's Hospital Wednesday. He was dehydrated and there was damage to his heart and kidneys upon his admission to the hospital.
Thursday marked his eighth day of fighting the virus.
Kaden Panico's mother, Lana Panico, said Thursday he was able to "finally speak a full sentence," after his body became weak and tired days prior.
