A pregnant nurse who contracted coronavirus died in a British hospital Sunday, but her daughter was delivered safely through a Caesarean section, British media reported.

Mary Agyeiwaa Agyapong, 28, worked at Luton and Dunstable University Hospital in southeast England. The National Health Service worker tested positive for the virus April 5 and was admitted to the hospital April 7, David Carter, CEO of the Bedfordshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, said in a statement.

Carter said Agyapong worked at the hospital for five years and “was a highly valued and loved member of our team, a fantastic nurse and a great example of what we stand for.”

It was not clear how she contracted the virus. A spokesman for the hospital said in an email that she last worked March 12 in a ward that was not handling coronavirus patients and that her baby is doing “very well.”
