A six-year-old girl and daughter of the Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Mohamed Saka has died of COVID-19 just seven days after resuming school.
Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Mohamed Saka, shared the sad story on his Twitter handle hours ago.
According to his tweets, the little girl contracted the virus when she resumed school and later died from the disease.
”Heartbreaking. 6 year daughter started school last week. Got Covid-19 in school and just passed away. Killed her in 7 days.
To those who are so afraid that kids are going to miss a year of school. Missing a year of school is better than losing a future. How about using this time to teach them how to plant, cook, basic first aid, creative and critical thinking… Not all learning is done in a classroom” he tweeted
