World War I was much worse than the coronavirus pandemic, according to Sarah "Betty" Spear. "The first world war was the worst thing; [COVID-19] is nothing in comparison," she remarked in an interview with South West News Service. Spear was born in Ireland in 1913, nearly a year before World War I began. "I don’t think the [National Health Service] have coped very well during [COVID-19]," Spear told SWNS. She stopped working at 90 and then quit smoking when her daughter – my mum, passed," Spear’s granddaughter, Jane Welch, 50, told SWNS.
