Full autopsy report reveals George Floyd tested positive for coronavirus ThursdayThoughts TopStories thursdaymorning

George Floyd’s final autopsy report has revealed the 46-year-old had tested positive for coronavirus but died from ‘cardiopulmonary arrest’ following his altercation with a Minneapolis police officer last Monday.

‘The decedent was known to be positive for 2019-nCoV RNA on 4/3/2020. Since PCR positivity for 2019-nCoV RNA can persist for weeks after the onset and resolution of clinical disease, the autopsy result most likely reflects asymptomatic but persistent PCR positivity from previous infection,’ the report states.

It comes after a preliminary autopsy last week said there was no evidence to support ‘strangulation or asphyxia’. An autopsy commissioned by the Floyd family concluded that he died of asphyxiation due to neck and back compression.
