    A 53-year-old woman who was already "critically ill" has become the latest British person to die after contracting coronavirus.

    The woman died in Indonesia, its health ministry said. She is the first person to die after testing positive for COVID-19 in the country.

    A spokesperson said she was "critically ill" when she was diagnosed with the disease.

    That headline leads one to believe initially that the death occurred in the UK.
