A Bangladeshi man who was taken to IGMH early morning today after suffering from a seizure has passed away. 

According to the authorities he was also tested positive for covid-19. Since there is a community spread of covid-19 in Maldives all patients admitted at IGMH are now tested for covid-19.

Even though he was tested positive for covid-19 the authorities have not determined whether that was the cause of death.

The man has now been buried with the permission of his family.
