Less than a day after members of her family were told that they were all infected with COVID-19, a 74-year-old woman succumbed yesterday at the Wismar Hospital in Linden.
Estella Williams, who was a resident of Moblissa, in Region Ten, is officially the 132nd person to die after contracting COVID-19 in Guyana. Her death was confirmed by Ministry of Health (MoH) officials and her relatives.
Coleen Williams, a daughter of the deceased, told Stabroek News that Estella died around 10 am yesterday. She disclosed that her mother had suffered a stroke about two weeks ago but was discharged a few days later and relatives were left to care for her.
