The woman was born during the Spanish Flu Pandemic and has now survived two of them

Think you're tough? Well, have you survived cancer and two global pandemics? Meet Angelina Friedman who was born during the Spanish Flu pandemic and has just survived COVID-19.

Ms. Friedman, who lives in a nursing home in Lake Mohegan, New York, was taken to a hospital for a minor medical procedure on March 21. But her procedure was postponed after she tested positive for COVID-19. After intermittently running a fever for several weeks, the 101-year-old cancer survivor tested negative for the virus on April 20. Her daughter, Joanne Merola said, "My mother is a survivor. She has super-human DNA."

Ms. Friedman was born on a passenger ship taking immigrants from Italy to New York City in 1918. Her mother died giving birth on the ship. She has outlived her husband and all of her 10 siblings. She's also way tougher than you.
