17 members of British family catch coronavirus after attending funeral


Seventeen members of a family in Britain have tested positive for the coronavirus after attending the funeral of a relative who died of the illness, according to local media. Within days of attending her funeral in Yardley Wood, Brooks’ 65-year-old niece, Susan Nelson, died, South West News Service reported. Shortly after, 16 other family members fell ill.“She died back in February, but we have just had so many people contract the virus that I can only think it was from then. We now have someone else in our family in hospital that’s probably not going to survive it,” Nelson’s daughter Amanda told South West News Service. “My 21-year-old cousin has it, right the way up to a great-uncle that is 88 and is showing some symptoms.
