Captain Sir Tom Moore has been admitted to hospital with coronavirus, his daughter has said. The 100-year-old, who raised more than £33m for the NHS, was taken to Bedford Hospital after requiring help with his breathing, Hannah Ingram-Moore said on Twitter.
Do u know what makes me sad the fact that all the money he raised isnt going to the NHS and its staff who work tirelessly
GOD bless him!
A star will now shine brightly over us all. God bless you - you were a true inspiration and thank you for reminding us that anything is possible xxx
A life well lived, and lived to the last. £33m! RIP Sir Tom.
I am crying not sure why. But I am crying uncontrollably. Rest in peace Captain Tom
Sun re o Captain Tom
RIP Captain Tom
He would probably not have caught pneumonia or Covid if his family had stuck to the rules governing everyone else and not jetted off to Barbados at Christmas. I don’t blame Capt Tom but I think his family have questions to answer for their stupidity.
Very sad news but i am sure Primeminister hasnt rang the families of other covid patients and their families weren't allowed at the bedside either! I guess 32m buys you preferential treatment!
elliecolton_ Also, I don’t know the situation 100%, but why are his family allowed at hospital with him when thousands of people have been denied this?
Thoughts are with Tom Moore and his family xxxx 💙❤️
As nice as it is that he has his family with him & I wish him well, noone else is allowed family members at their bed side. Why is Captain Tom? There have been over 100k covid deaths, I'm sure all of those people would have liked loved ones with them too but its not allowed
no sympathy from me, zero common sense, he should have been in lockdown like the rest of us, shame on him, he's no better than rita ora and kay burley now
this was a very bad miss step from tom moore, he should have been tucked away in his house, not blinkin well jetting off to barbados, unbelievable
shame on the news networks for not reporting that he actually broke lockdown rules by jetting off to barbados, and where is he now, in hospital with covid, why the hell was he not turned away from the airport when he arrived?
what the hell were his family thinking , taking a 100 year old man to barbados during a killer pandemic? this has tarnished the good deed he did, because he should have been setting the example, by folllowng government guidelines, TO STAY AT HOME, shocking
Captain Tom Moore ain’t in hospital battling Covid, he’s been in hospital for few weeks battling pneumonia and recently tested positive for Covid. Regardless I hope he pulls through 💫
I wish him a speedy recovery..
💖💖
😞
Sending lots of healing hugs to Captain Tom get well soon 🤗🤗🤗🤗x
He raised a fantastic amount of money and I wish him well, but you’re telling me his December trip to Barbados was for work?!! I thought we were in a Pandemic!! 🤨
No he hasn’t. He has pneumonia and the useless test showed Covid. Get your facts straight.
PLEASE READ THE ARTICLE IN FULL BEFORE BLAMING THE VACCINATION!!!! HE COULD NOT HAVE ONE BECAUSE HE WAS ON MED WHCH HE HAD TO FINISH TAKING FIRST. TomMoore
♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏
All the best for a true HERO.
FBMister Damn. Covid:
Bring to the notice to THOSE WHO THOSE WHO HAVE CONTROL that we are expected to wait 11 to 12 weeks after the 1stvaccine before the 2nd! When the manufacturer (Pfizer) say 21 days! The government have said 11 to 12 weeks and won’t budge! Contact your MP! Before it loses effect!
I wish him all the best recovering from his pneumonia.
Despite the Elderly being the ones most in need of it, for them the vaccine(s) can produce unpleasant reactions, some fatal. Vaccination will be, will HAVE to be, a personal, and informed, decision. Publish the data:
While I wish Tom well, I believe it was completely unacceptable for him to travel to Barbados with his family for a holiday. People are going through IMMENSE hardship at the moment and to go on an extravagant holiday is an INSULT! It also undermines the hard work of the NHS 😡
many others catched it.
It would be interesting to know if the good Captain had the second covid jab?
❤️ Let’s hope this Hero makes a full recovery
I just knew the comments on this would be full of gammons defending his holiday to Barbados 🤣 If it was anyone else(imagine it was Jeremy corbyn)😳 They'd be calling for a public execution!!!
Hope u get well soon tom we are rooting g for you back home
Get well soon captaintommoore
I wish you well Sir Tom you are an inspiration to us all. x
will be furious when he survives
Come on Sir Tom you can do this - our country loves you 💕
If he dies, the government will try to cover it up. I'd bet my next holiday to Barbados on it.
Sending you and all the family warm wishes x
Noooo 😔
More than 33 million?
Oah dear that's awful 😢 😞 praying 🙏 he gets through this. Sir captain Tom your in our thoughts for a recovery 🙏
No, Sir Tom has pneumonia ... get well soon Sir Tom.
I hope they never put him in a ward full of covid patients before he had covid and was only there for pneumonia
I hope he has been vaccinated against Covid. So should be OK?
Captain Tom was vaccinated and surely, if one has been vaccinated, a tiny amount of the virus will be in your body, and show up positive in a PCR Test? There is the possibility that Captain Tom's symptoms could be an adverse reaction to the vaccine. See Norway, Germany & the US
Hope you recover soon Sit Tom
Get well soon Captain Sir Tom Moore. A real hero and example to all
Why is this news?
Please use the correct term of covid19. There are many coronavirus's
Forgive me if I'm wrong but aren't we all supposed to be keeping our love ones safe during this pandemic.... not to travel unless its an emergency...oh Barbados that sounds like an emergency! And reckless idea on the family to go & I bet they regret it now!
Ye ye ye sure he has .... How much did they pay you tom 🤣🤣
Get well soon Captain Tom you are an amazing fighter and you will get through this.
I pray that our fabulous Sir Captain Tom Moore will make a good recovery. ❤️❤️❤️
BlueBadgeCo Get Well Soon Tom! Rooting for ya
The system is going to tackle inequality with the same 'money no object' efficiency it's used getting everyone vaccinated and isolated. Their actions on the Vax issue shows they value YOUR LIFE, like a farmer values a cows life give um 5 more years LOL
Captain Tom Moore is an absolute legend and I wish him a speedy recovery. ❤️
Our world is evil
Disappointed about some people judging both Captain Tom and his family when NO details are really known about this. Suggest only other 100 year olds are in a position to offer perspective on “risk”.
Did he get Covid in Barbados? Or was he not able to take the vaccine because he was going on holiday....during a pandemic...
Thinking of you Captain, you raised my spirits through Covid as you did millions of others too, may God be by your side looking after you and seeing you through this illness, my thoughts are with your family too ❤
No
Wish you well, Tom.
Should have stayed home
You are a remarkable man and an inspiration. Sending all good wishes for a speedy recovery...
Captain Sir Tom Moore wlshing you a speedy recovery. We all love you❤️
I wish him well but he should not have been encouraged to fly abroad. An NHS bed is now taken up along with NHS staff at risk to Covid. Politicians are going to have to say it was unwise at the very least to not have STAYED AT HOME TO PROTECT THE NHS .
Wishing the veteran a get well soon. The World need such people. From South Africa.
Shocked I am, during lockdown he’s had hundreds of journalists visiting him, an airline flying him across the world etc. You lot couldn’t leave the poor guy alone. Hope you’re all satisfied
Get well soon captain Tom Moore,
Positive thoughts coming your way, Captain Tom!
Get well soon Sir Tom where all behind you
jon_mumford1982 Jetting off to Barbados in December, when people were told to stay home, didn't help.
captaintommoore hope you are copying well with COVID19 and I send you allmy best wishes for a good recovery
Get well soon SIR TOM X
singsingarsing God Bless Captain Tom Moore 💖💖💖
If ever there was a person that the entire United Kingdom is rooting for, it's Captain Tom. There's not a single person out there that doesn't wish him a full and speedy recovery 💗
Why was he not one of the first ppl to get vaccinated,the man is 100 years old,WW2 veteran,he raised £33m for the NHS,bet this man kept himself isolatedfollowed the rules too,how the hell did this happened to this wonderful man,somehow,someone let this man down badly ITS SO SAD🙏
Give 'em hell, Captain Moore. You can do this. Sending healing thoughts!
Alicia_Smith19 🙏💙🙏
Let’s hope he doesn’t add to Johnson’s dire statistic. Wishing Tom a speedy recovery.
I hope Capt Tom makes a full recovery.
Get well soon. You are our hero.
☹️☹️☹️
Fight hard Captain Tom 🙏😥
Praying for him. He’s a precious soul. God bless him! ❤️
Get well soon Tom x
F
Please get well soon Sir Captain Moore! 🙏🏻❤
Is Boris Johnson going to blame him for catching it like he would Joe Public?
This is terrible news. I hope they gave him the monoclonal cocktail immediately. I wish his a fast and full recovery.
Obviously I don't want him to die. His daughter works in PR & planned the campaign. Bit selfish to travel & endanger others during lockdown. Typical Tories. Shame the public are so easily taken in.
Ah no. Get better, please.
I'm pretty sure if everyone was offered a free family trip to Barbados to get away from the Covid hellhole that is the United Kingdom they'd have taken it. Would be much safer over there than here.
Let's all say a prayer for Captain Moore. A true super hero in today's world and part of TheGreatestGeneration
Get well soon 💓
Get well Captain you'll have to see your success legacy.
Get well soon Tom old lad 💪🇬🇧♥️
Get well soon Captain. All the best.
Fed up with petty people on twitter
Hes 100 years old hes caught flu
Please don’t forget the 30,000 people in hospital I pray for them all and the remarkable work they may have done , god bless them
Get well soon Sir Tom. Thinking of you and sending you lots of love and BIG hugs from us in Somerset xxx
cmon LEGEND , the country needs you
God speed
He's 100 yo, so in group risk, so he shouldn't have gone to Barbados for Christmas. I stayed at home, spent Christmas just on my own as my family is in Poland💔 English elder people instead of isolating themselves, they break rules, we had the same in restaurant with customers🙄
After fighting Pneumonia, he ends up with Covid. This is grim news indeed. I hope he pulls through. Get well Captain.
Did this man fly to Barbados recently? Or did I hear wrongly
my thoughts and prayers are with Captain Tom. Get well soon. xx
How did he get it!
God bless you Captain Tom Moore, may the Lord bring healing to you and deliver you safely home to your family, we be praying for you constantly.... Get well real soon.
I really hope he recovers. Damn covid19.
Anyone else noticed that everyone’s telling him to get well knowing that coronavirus can kill him, yet the same people are bending rules because ‘it’s just a flu’ 🙄 get well soon!💕
We’re rooting for you Sir Tom!
After doing all what he’s done being a beacon in the darkness, a pillar of humanity along with the NHS it’s a shame. (And people are starting to talk about rejecting the vaccine is terrifying.)
God bless him, hope he recovers soon.
Oh no...
How was he not vaccinated early in December ? I know 70 year olds who have been vaccinated ! Makes no sense
If a 'median influener' or a youngster jetted off to Barbados in Dec & caught covid in Jan, & was then hospitalised youd all be going ape !! But as it involves ££ & 'Sir Tom' its fine. Heres hoping Tom recovers, but spares us the hypocritical bullshit, faux tears & concern.
So sad to hear this and I really wish for a full recovery!
God speed Captain Tom Moore. Hope you come out the other side, fighting fit as before the covid-19..
fladdle Sad to hear, hope he recovers and is out soon.
Wishing him the best.
💕💕💕🙏
Get well soon, you can beat this Sir X
I hope he fully recovers soon!
Get well soon Captain Tom❤️
Essential travel during lockdown eh?
Firstly I'd like to associate myself with the well wishes for him, truly a national treasure. I do question the logic though, to disregard government advice and travel to Barbados recently.
Get well soon, Sir. Please don’t die from this.... this nation would break its heart if you did.
Get well Caprain, you'll have to see the success of your legacy.
Oh no! Darn it! He will be in my prayers. ❤️
Scamdemic
God bless him.
Sorry to here you not very well Tom,i I have had that and its not very nice,if it was not for my son and Daughter,i mite of ended up in Hospital,even though they both had it to,So i wish you well Tom,be thinking of you,take care,be safe xx
Oh no! Wishing him a speedy recovery 🙏😇😘
Outrageous!! Essential travel not in one “hundred” ******* years!!
Did he not get the vaccine? Hope he's ok.
Best wishes Captain Sir Tom, get well soon.
Hang in there bud.
Captain Tom bunks off2Barbados to test his eyesight. Wonder how many people raised NHS cash,but didn't get the media leg-up he did? It's all 'Hey, a 100yo did it,but sod everyone else!' Media are a joke & Tom's family are dicks for taking him abroad on holiday to spread COVID19!
Why the fxxx are we not in uk rioting fighting bck the government for our country. Were all been controlled yr after yr. Come on people. lockdown till july? Economy going to ruin no come back. People locked up like were in Alcatraz. Other countries are fighting bck. We nd to
Get well soon Sir Tom 💙🇬🇧
I wish him a speedy recovery. As for the holiday, if a 100 year old guy wants to go on holiday then let him.
Get well soon !
Hope he gets well soon. However, I hope also that once he has made a full recover that he'll be willing to answer some questions about the allocation of funds from his charity appeal. As presented here, Captain Tom might face some very tricky questions
DonnaEddie46 I so hope he can fight this and get home soon. 😢🤗🤗
Get well soon Captain Dave you legend! We’ll never forget your name and all the great work you did...
He was being treated for Pneumonia but the lying truth-twisting BBC Goebbels followers say it was coronavirus. Liars. The licence Fee should end Salford Media Centre should be rebuilt to comprise Council Housing.
How the hell did HE catch it?
There will be a lot of questions to answer if a 100 year old man comes out the other side. As many very elderly people have. Good luck. This guy has led from the start.
Get well soon Captain Tom your an inspiration to all.
GIVE HIM THE VACCINE, HE DESERVES IT.💕
Burning a candle for you Sir Tom. Love and healing 💫🍀
😭😭😭
Very sad to hear that Captain Sir Tom Moore is ill with Covid.He’s a wonderful inspirational man.
Good luck to him.
Thoughts and prayers. 😞😞
Get well very soon. 👍👍👍👍👍
pray4Tom
Wishing captaintommoore a speedy recovery.
And if he dies it will be labelled as Covid. Nothing to do with the fact he’s 100🤦♂️you getting the scam yet?
Get well soon 🤞
If he takes this enemy down, the man should be promoted. Major Tom. Ground control, are you listening?
That’s what happens when you go on holiday during a pandemic
Posted this on a facebook group page earlier today got this response from a guy the group then deleted my post for mentioning covid19 ! Even if you have lost someone (very sad) you can still wish someone else a quick recovery! Sad
Please get well soon Captain Tom, we are all thinking of you ❤
Get well soon sweet man. We are all praying for you to combat this sh*tty disease.
£33 mil just about covers 1% of the serco track and trace bill
Get well soon sir tom
Surely he’s been vaccinated?
Get well soonest.
Hope hes alright but ultimately going abroad during a pandemic is ridiculous. Were it anyone else they would be absolutely dragged by social media but because its C.Tom boomers are falling over themselves to worship him even when he makes stupid decisions.
Deeply wish you a full rapid recovery Sir Tom SirTomMoore
We will hold you in our prayers
Stay strong Tom!!!!
Hang on a bit? Surely he would have been given the vaccine weeks ago? And had the second dose?
Oh no!
Got everything crossed for captaintommoore 🙏
Let’s hope he recovers, he has been through some hard times in his life
Go bless him and hope he pulls through just a bit concerned how has he not had the vaccine or had he and still in hospital?
Oh no. Hang in there 😊
What’s this guy did was fantastic, however... he’s 100 years old
O this is sad bless him ❤️
Congratulations to the lucky winners of yesterday,we still giving out $1200_$25,000 to the first 50 people to DM directly on the subject of online trade like we did yesterday,It's start now
It's so sick and twisted to try and say this is covid. He has pneumonia. This is happening all over the country. Relatives saying there grandma died of dementia or heart attack and death certificate says covid because they happen to have tested positive when in hospital
Oh ffs they are really wringing this poor man out.
Get well soon Captain Tom❤
Did he take the vaccine?
Wishing you a speedy and full recovery
Keep well and carry on Captain Tom.
No! No! Oh, God No! This is horrible news he's a lovely man, I sincerely hope he recovers from this, I wish him a speedy recovery, GetWellSoonCaptainTom
A inspirational human being. Get well soon Sir Tom. Your a one in a million and I hope you make a speedy recovery 👍👍👍
Many seem to be missing the point. This is about what Tom represents, the thousands he has inspired through his actions. He, along with many others have been a beacon amongst all the sacrifice and loss and it's awful to think of losing that to the thing he was trying to fight.
He is a saint this virus is so unfair. Wishing you well. x
Get well soon best wishes
Let us honour his decency by calling out the Tory corruption that saw every penny cap Tom raised going to dido Harding for her failed test and trace system .. that is a worthwhile legacy if he brought down this repugnant criminal govt !!
ask his family how he got coronavirusuk
Get well soon Sir Tom xxx
He is in our prayers
My prayers are with him for a speedy recovery. God bless him. 🙂🙂🙂
Get well soon Sir Tom 🇬🇧
Get well soon Sir Tom tomorrow will be a better day stay strong ❤

Oh no 😢
Thoughts and prayers to Sir Tom and his family for a speedy recovery
After all you have done, please beat this last hurdle, you are so loved. ❤️❤️👍👍🦄
Wishing Captain Tom well and home again soon to his daughter and family
I hope he's had at least one dose of the Pfizer jab back in December?
Fingers crossed and praying for CaptainTom to pull through. Such a magical man, selfless hero and a beacon of inspiration at a time when the nation needed it most. 🙏🙏
How come BorisJohnson's old man, who's done absolutely nothing for this country, got 2 doses of the Pfizer vaccine, 3 weeks apart, but CaptainTomMoore, who's raised millions for the NHS did not? 🤔
How desperately sad and awful. What an absolute fking shame this govt's guidelines have been lax enough to allow this to happen. Wishing him a rapid and full recovery.
Garlic for now, but wait for a day to reach the lungs. Try it for a PM schedule.
he is a hero for modern times and god bless him..however we should never forget that every penny he raised was corruptly given to friend of the tories dido harding's failed test and trace scheme
Bless this dear man...wonder if he’d been given ‘The Vaccine’ though...
How if there’s a lockdown
Lots of love & best Wishes to Sir Capt Tom Moore & family. 😘😘
Wishing him a speedy recovery.
Interesting to know who had it in his “support “ bubble 🤔
Get well soon sir.
God bless him.
PLEASE let him be OK! He's such a wonderful man... 💖
His family are to blame
Surely being 100 he's been vaccinated? My 60 something dad is getting his vaccine this week
Thinking of the good man. Hope he gets better.
OH NO
How sad it would be if Covid ended his life🥺
Remarkable what he did last year! Can make it happen again 🙏
Get well soon Sir Captain Tom, wishing you all the best . Thoughts with his family too. x
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Get well soon Captain Sir Tom. Keeping you in my heart and prayers xx
That Barbados holiday have anything to do it?
Get well soon Tom...
DerbyChrisW BenJolly9
Surprised he hadn't received the vaccination as a priority
Sorry to hear this and wish him a speedy recovery. It may be worth while ensuring he has been given a boost from Vitamin D and Ivermectin to aid his recovery.
How did this national hero not get the first vaccine available to prevent this!! 🥲
Very best wishes 🤞
Sending love and happy thoughts to captaintom get well soon 😘🙏
xxx
Thoughts and prayers are with Sir Tom 🙏🏻
Sending lots of love and get well soon
The country is behind you sir xxxx
Get well very soon sir 🙏
Get well soon Captain Tom. ♥️ I'm keeping you in my prayers, alongside all who are sick and suffering right now. Much love.
Best wishes to Sir Tom.
Get well soon ❤️
Clearly hasn't been wearing his mask correctly
Fingers crossed that the old gentleman is able to survive it. Best of luck Captain Tom Moore.
Hero. Get well soon.
Get well soon x
Hope Captain Tom recovers soon and feels much better xx
Wishing sir captain Tom Moore a speedy recovery. Get well ❤️ x
A salute to you sir! Stay strong x
I’m sure his family had more than kept him safe.....How many wondering if he’d had the vaccine...
Oh dear, I hope the family cash cow will be OK
Best wishes for a speedy recovery Sir Tom.
Get well soon Captain Tom xx
LOL
Looks like he caught it in hospital while he was treated for pneumonia. It was unlucky, you think they give him a sterile suite in hospital after the 33m that he raised for the NHS. He'll win, he just have to walk a little bit longer.
How many ♥️ did Johnson get? I’ve seen 63,503 on Tom’s in a day.
Get well soon, Sir Moore!
Bless you, Sir and wishing you all the best.
My best wishes to His family, he is a shining light in this whole COVID-19 pandemic
Going to Barbados during pandemic was dumb but it was in December. Completely unrelated to his current condition. I hope he'll get better soon
Sad news. Hope you improve Sir Tom. You have been a beacon to many recently and a brave soldier historically. You have given so much and deserve to get well.
Surely Captain Tom was offered the vaccine first?
Wish sir Tom moore a speedy recovery 🙏🏻
Get well soon sir Tom ...we need you 🙏❤️
HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN!
Bless him. I hope he can recover from this awful virus. Getwellsoon
captaintommoore wishing you a speedy recovery and sending big hugs and lots of love.
Get well soon Captain Moore🕯️🙏
Who has been near him to give him Covid?
Get well soon captain tom..
Sending Captain Tom best wishes for a full recovery. The whole country is wishing you well I’m sure. Think of the whole family too. xx
May God bless you Sir Captain Tom, and by the Stripes of Jesus Christ be healed 🙏✝️ Sending love, and a big hug 💝⚘🥰xxx
Surely of the the 8 million that have been vaccinated then he should have been one of the first to have had the vaccine?
He has Pneumonia and has done for weeks poor guy that’s nasty in a man of his age. The COVID is what the BBC makes the headlines
Wishing captaintommoore a speedy recovery
I’m sure the NHS will provide the very best of care to Col Tom. Get well soon...
Very sad news indeed. A much better human being than those selfish people partying over the weekend.
Please be well dear Sir Tom.
He was not vaccinated?
😔🙏🏾
Wishing him a speedy recovery
no doubt the BBC will still be expecting him to pay £157.50 for a tv licence
Hope he's better soon! And to the Muppets, even if he had had the vaccine it doesn't stop him getting Covid. It just reduces the risk of hospitalization.
Sending so much love,thanks & gratitude to you incredible man, please fight this with all your strength sweetheart,my heart feels it's been kicked 💔 Please get well soon sweet man,I have every faith in our amazing NHS who'll fight for you and beside you ((hugs)) never give up ❤
Sending healing prayers & comfort to him & his family 🙏
Fingers crossed for the big man - what a legend.
Thoughts and prayers...
Our thoughts are with you!
noooo not Captian Tom I hope he makes a speedy recovery what a legend this man is 😞
Sending. best wishes to Captain Tom ❤️
He must have missed out on the Covid Jab ?
No, no, no, no. Hasn't he been vaccinated against it?
😭
PaulaBrexiteer 33 million
Probably should of taken the vaccine instead of a holiday to Barbados 🤡
We're all saying a prayer for this wonderful gent. We have all learnt a lot from this beautiful man. 🙏🐝
Silly boy he shouldn't have shaken Boris's hand ☹️
Get well soon 🙏🏼🙏🏼
