Relatives of Devika Wong and Bibi Persaud, a mother and daughter who succumbed to the COVID-19 virus, are calling on officials to investigate the measures in place at the Infectious Disease Hospital at Liliendaal.
A relative who asked to remain anonymous, told this newspaper she is hoping that officials will also look into the treatment of patients at the hospital.
The woman explained that on August 21, Wong, 45, complained of feeling unwell after developing a fever, headache and a “slight shortness of breath.” She stated that Wong on the evening of the following day, was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital where she tested positive for the coronavirus.
