78-yr-old dies of COVID-19 in Delta
His death becomes the sixth recorded COVID-19 death in the state.
According to the commissioner, the patient died three hours after he was rushed to the Warri isolation centre from a private hospital unconscious. “One of the deaths was that of a young man of 20 years who had been suffering from blood cancer and anaemic heart failure that took him to the hospital frequently for treatment, including blood transfusions.
“It is obvious from the recorded deaths that the most vulnerable persons among us are those who have pre-existing illnesses and are elderly”.
