A pastor from New York has recovered after a 100-day battle with the CCP virus, including spending 54 days on a ventilator and over six weeks in a medically induced coma. His doctor credits prayer for the pastor’s miraculous return to health.
By mid-April, Rev. Benjamin Thomas, an Indian immigrant and senior pastor of Queens Church of God, had lost 50 pounds (approx. 23 kg) and was suffering from lung failure, reports the NY Daily News. The pastor’s doctor at Mount Sinai Hospital, heart surgeon Dr. Robin Varghese, then turned to his faith for assistance.
