An Italian priest died of coronavirus after giving up a respirator that his parishioners bought for him to a younger patient, it has been revealed.
Giuseppe Berardelli, 72, from Casigno in Italy’s hardest-hit Lombardy region, died in a local hospital in recent days after being diagnosed with the virus.
Berardelli had been given a respirator – which are in desperately short supply – by parishioners concerned about his heath but decided to give it to a younger patient who he didn’t know but was struggling to breathe because of the virus.
