Mumbai Reports Posthumous COVID-19 Cases in Those with Existing Illness

Two individuals in Mumbai, a 14-year-old with kidney disease and a 59-year-old with cancer, recently passed away and tested positive for COVID-19 posthumously.

Hospital officials clarified that the deaths were not directly caused by the virus, but rather by pre-existing conditions like kidney failure and sepsis.

Doctors emphasize that COVID-19's impact has lessened, with most cases now presenting mild symptoms.

While there has been a slight increase in cases, the severity remains low, similar to typical viral infections during peak seasons.

The cases show that even if COVID is detected, it doesn't mean it was the direct cause of death.

The medical community assures that the virus now causes few serious problems for most people.
