"She survived the disease and is doing fine," a spokeswoman for the residence said, adding Branyas had only displayed mild symptoms.

She underwent a corona test last week, which came out to be negative. Only one staff nurse was allowed in her room wearing a PPE kit. Corona has killed more than 27,000 people in Spain so far.
