A premature baby could be the youngest victim of the coronavirus illness after it tragically died shortly after it was born.
The heartbreaking death took place after the mum was admitted to hospital while suffering from symptoms of Covid-19 including shortness of breath and a fever.
She was then placed on a ventilator and tested positive for coronavirus before she gave birth to the child prematurely at just 22 weeks.
Doctors say this would not have happened had it not been for her coronavirus symptoms and sadly the child was pronounced dead shortly after it was delivered at the hospital.
