A 28-year-old pregnant nurse has died after contracting coronavirus.
Mary Agyeiwaa Agyapong, who worked at Luton and Dunstable University Hospital for five years, died on Sunday after testing positive for COVID-19, the disease caused by coronavirus.
Her baby was delivered successfully via emergency caesarean and is doing well, according to the hospital.
Rhoda Asiedu and Gloria Gyan, thought to be two friends of Ms Agyapong, have since set up a fundraiser in her name for her husband and daughter, which has so far raised more than £20,000. Its original target was £2,000.
They added her daughter has been named Mary.
On the fundraising page, the duo said: “Mary was a blessing to everyone she came across and her love, care and sincerity will be irreplaceable.
“You will forever be in our hearts Mary. Your memories are still with us and we will cherish them forever until we meet again. We will forever miss you.”
