Un expert din procesul privind moartea lui Maradona nu exclude COVID-19 ca posibil factor

An official expert testified that Diego Maradona might have had COVID-19 before his death, criticizing the lack of a coronavirus test during the autopsy. Pablo Ferrari stated that the absence of testing was a methodological error, introducing a new hypothesis in the ongoing trial. He explained that the virus could rapidly affect the respiratory system, potentially leading to death within minutes. Ferrari noted that Maradona suffered from pulmonary edema and an arrhythmia but could not definitively determine the cause of his cardiac arrest. This account contrasts with other experts who suggested a prolonged agony before death. The trial continues with further hearings scheduled.
