The heartbroken family of the youngest person in the UK to die after contracting coronavirus have paid tribute to the 'gentle and kind' 13-year-old.
Ismail Mohamed Abdulwahab, 13, from Brixton in London, died with no family around him due to the highly infectious nature of Covid-19 on Monday morning at Kings College Hospital.
His family have now issued a statement through GoFundMe, as they remember the 'gentle and kind' boy. The Mohamed family said: "We are heartbroken as a family due to the devastation caused by the coronavirus as it becomes too real for us as a family and community. "Ismail was a loving son, brother, nephew to our family and a friend to many people who knew him.
