Coronavirus Victoria: ‘Youngest victim’ may have died from other cause
Victoria’s State Coroner is investigating if there was “another reason” behind the death of a man in his 20s, considered our youngest COVID-19 victim.
The death of a man in his 20s, considered Australia’s youngest COVID-19 victim, has not been included in the national toll and a coroner is investigating if it was from another cause.
Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews announced the young man’s death exactly one month ago.
“We are talking about – we believe – the youngest person that has died of this virus, or at least with this virus,” Mr Andrews said on August 14.
“That’s the other issue that would need to be teased out.”
The person given that responsibility was Victorian State Coroner Judge John Cain who has classified the case as a “reportable death”.
The young man has not been publicly identified.
