A newborn baby has reportedly tested positive for coronavirus in London, United Kingdom to become the youngest person in the world affected by the pandemic disease.

The baby’s mother was rushed to hospital in London with suspected pneumonia a few days ago, the Sun reported.

Once it was ascertained that both mother and baby had coronavirus, they were placed in separate hospitals overnight to receive treatment.

The mother, who did not know she had coronavirus until after giving birth, was tested at North Middlesex Hospital, Enfield, according to the Sun.

The baby was tested within minutes of being born at the hospital, and is still receiving treatment there.
