The Gerontology Research Group, which validates details of people thought to be 110 or older, lists Frenchwoman Lucile Randon − Sister André's birth name − as the second-oldest known living person in the world.
French media report that Sister André tested positive for the virus in mid-January in the southern French city of Toulon. But just three weeks later, the nun is considered recovered.
