A toddler infected with Covid-19 has died in South Australia.
"A Covid-positive child under the age of 2 has, sadly, passed away," Premier Steven Marshall told reporters on Thursday.
"This is still being determined as to the cause of death. Obviously, we will refer this to the coroner."
Marshall said
if a person died while infected with Covid-19 it did not necessarily mean that was the cause of death.
"We will need to do that investigation," he said.
