Muzaffer Kayasan is Turkey's longest running Covid-19 patient, recording a continuous coronavirus infection for more than a year. The 56-year-old, who has a weakened immune system from leukaemia, has spent nine months in hospital and 5 months mostly alone in his flat. Kayasan is not allowed to be vaccinated while he remains positive for the coronavirus. Still he remains optimistic despite losing his sense of taste and smell from the disease. But he has appealed to authorities to ease his confinement.

穆扎费尔·卡亚桑是土耳其持续感染新冠肺炎时间最长的病人,他在超过一年的时间里多次新冠病毒检测均呈阳性。这名56岁的男子被认为创下新冠病毒活跃感染病例的世界纪录。这名56岁的男子由于身患白血病,身体的免疫系统极为薄弱,目前他已经住院长达9个月,之后在公寓中独居了5个月时间。在新冠检测呈阳性期间,卡亚桑不被允许接种新冠疫苗。尽管因疾病他已经失去了味觉和嗅觉,但是他依然保持乐观。不过他呼吁当局能够放松对他的隔离。
