NHS worker Alan Macalalad unlikely to have caught Covid at work
On 5 May 2020, his wife Elsie, who is a nurse at Ysbyty Cwm Rhondda, called to say she had been sent home with Covid-19 symptoms.Mr Macalalad was admitted to the Royal Glamorgan Hospital on 20 May where he suffered a blocked blood vessel in the lungs and went into cardiac arrest.Coroner Graeme Hughes said the medical cause of death was Covid-19 pneumonitis leading to coronary thromboembolism and diabetes.
He said, from the evidence from the health board and the Health and Safety Executive, he had come to the conclusion Mr Macalalad died of natural causes. "It is a possibility that Alan did become infected once he was at work, however, on the balance of probabilities, that is less likely."
