A heartbreaking video clip of a Covid-19 patient who has died after sending a strong warning to South Africans is currently making rounds on social media. The video clip has left many in tears.

In the clip, a young man who was struggling to breath without an oxygen pump can be heard telling people that Covid-19 is real and it kills.

The young man, who said he was in Intensive Care Unit, warned Mzansi people to sanitize, wear their masks and practice social distancing. “Friends and family, this thing is alive. I’m isolated and breathing through a gas cylinder. This thing real.

Please wash your hands, sanitize and wear your mask,” the young man said as he was visibly gasping for air and crying.

It was obvious on the clip that he was terrified of what was going to happen to him.

According to a family friend, the young man sadly passed away on Saturday.
