Isang anim na linggong gulang na sanggol ang pumanaw sa komplikasyong may kinalaman sa COVID-19, ayon sa gobernador ng Connecticut, US, nitong Miyerkules.
Sinabi ni Governor Ned Lamont sa Twitter, na dinala ang sanggol sa ospital na walang malay at hindi na ma-revive.
“Testing confirmed last night that the newborn was Covid-19 positive,” ani Lamont.
“This is absolutely heartbreaking. We believe this is one of the youngest lives lost anywhere due to complications relating to Covid-19,” dagdag ng opisyal.
