Authorities in the UK confirmed a 6-week-old infant died after testing positive for the CCP virus, becoming one of the youngest victims anywhere in the world to succumb to the disease.

National Health Service (NHS) England said the baby was among 332 fatalities who died after testing positive for the virus over the past 24 hours, according to The Guardian. The baby is believed to be the youngest person in the UK to die from COVID-19, although it is not clear if the child had any underlying health problems.
