A 36-year-old woman died at her flat in south London of suspected Covid-19 a day after calling 999 and being told to look after herself at home.

Kayla Williams, a mother of three, died on Saturday 21 March, a day after paramedics were called to her home in Peckham, London.

. .
Her husband, Fabian Williams, told The Guardian that mum-of-three Kayla was suffering from a cough, high fever and severe chest and stomach pains.

Documents seen by The Guardian are said to confirm Kayla suspected of having been infected with Covid-19.

Mr Williams, 49, said: “I called 999 because my wife was breathless, she was vomiting and she had pains in her stomach.

“As I was talking to them she was getting worse and they told me to put her on the floor and to make her body flat.”

A paramedic who arrived tested Kayla and told him “the hospital won’t take her, she is not a priority”.

But Kayla deteriorated the following day and Mr Williams found her dead in the front room.

He had earlier helped her to get dressed and had fed her some soup before finding her face down and slumped over in the front room.

Mr Williams added: “She was already dead.

“I put her on the ground – because that is what they had told me to do before – and I rang 999 again and they told me to put my hand on her chest and pump her chest.”

Paramedics who arrived a short time later battled in vain to resuscitate her.

Police who arrived at his home would not come in and “stood on the doorstep”.

An undertaker who arrived wrapped his wife in sheeting and placed her in a body bag in line with protocol for deaths from infectious diseases.

Mr Williams said: “They put on full forensic suits outside, with full masks, visors and gloves.

“They covered their feet as well. This is when I thought; ‘What’s going on? This is not right.

“I have heard nothing since.

“They have left me here and said I must isolate. They haven’t told me anything else.

“I am a diabetic. I take insulin.

“All I know is I am supposed to isolate. No one has mentioned her body being tested or anything.”

This may play out in Nigeria looking at how priority may be shifted to politicians and leaving average Nigerians to their own fate.

He shouldn't have predicted with certainty though....but looking at the way things are in this country, you probably can predict..
We might even be treating this virus locally and unintentionally.... this is Africa, we are really talented and blessed... it's just poor leadership that keeps dragging us down.
God help us all.

So you're afraid of dying but you're prophesying it for others? you think you're too precious to die? instead of praying for God to help us you predict doom for all. You think your head is stronger than others, you will be disappointed.
