One of the hardest things for family members of Cove in 19 patients is the isolation.

Absolutely no one is allowed in hospitals, so any loving family contact has to be done.

Virtually another mask on top of this with a face shield.

This cove in 19 Survivor is proving there's hope for all victims of the pandemic whole.

Saunders is a doctor, and he's now returning to work on the front lines at My Monitors Medical Center in Brooklyn.

One of the most difficult things is not being able to be, you know, at work, helping out my colleagues and helping out our team on you.

Feel like you're letting people down by not being at work and not contributing.

So, uh, I was actually very lucky, very lucky to recover quickly and happy.

Really.

Get back into the hospital, Get back to work.

Former marathon runner David Lat is also inspiring hope.

He spent six agonizing days on a ventilator but is now recovering.

I had great care by great doctors and nurses, and I had a lot of support from family and friends.

Latte was able to speak with Inside Edition for just a few minutes because he remains exhausted from his ordeal.

What was it like being on a ventilator?

I actually don't really remember it.

It was like six days carved out of my life, all right?
