BRUSSELS: A 12-year-old girl confirmed infected with COVID-19 has died in Belgium, health officials said Tuesday. Fatality at such a young age “is a very rare occurrence,” said government spokesman Dr Emmanuel Andre, adding that her death “shook us”. The girl had had a fever for three days before her death, and tested positive for COVID-19, said another spokesman, Steven Van Gucht.
