A 28-year-old pregnant mother had succumbed to COVID-19 infection after a Cesarean delivery at the Kurunegala Teaching Hospital.

Doctors could only manage to save the life of the infant, hospital sources said.

Only helpless people die, The Rajapaksa families go to USA or Singapore to get treatment for even common cold.

Janaki Perera... U are tripping on your tail.... Its not the Rajapakshes family. Its the SENARATNE family who did not trust our own health men who ended up in mount Elizabeth.
