A British Indian Manohar Krishna Prabhu who was in his eighties passed away at Watford General Hospital due to the deadly coronavirus that the plagued the world. Professor Chris Whitty, the chief medical officer for England relased a official statement. "I am sorry to confirm a sixth patient in England who tested positive for Covid-19 has died. The patient, being treated by West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust, had underlying health conditions. It appears the virus was acquired in the UK and full contact tracing has begun."

Manohar is the first Indian-origin person known to have died of the virus in Britain. His son is still being treated at the hospital.A Krishna devotee, Parasuram Das, said that Manohar, a Sindhi, had contracted the virus from an Italian man who has come to his house to buy some audio equipment from his son. The Italian man was unwell, he said. "Manohar fell ill soon afterwards and went into hospital about 10 days ago. Four of our temple guys who went to visit them last week have been put in quarantine." The devotees who went to visit the duo in hospital did so before the coronavirus was diagnosed as initially they thought he had pneumonia.
