A Japanese woman has taken her life after she had tested positive for the novel coronavirus and had made her daughter and husband infeted with the disease, Njenje Media News reports.
She was found dead last Friday in her Tokyo apartment while self-isolating as a result of the virus.
The woman in her 30’s had lived with her husband and daughter who have both tested positive for the disease, according to local media citing sources.
In a note she left behind, the woman wrote that ‘it is inexcusable that I have become a nuisance,’ and blamed herself for her daughter catching the virus.
She also said that she felt sorry for causing trouble for people around her.
Health experts have reportedly called for necessary mental care for the people who self-isolate at home during the coronavirus pandemic, which has claimed more than two million people worldwide.
The news comes as the number of people taking their own lives in Japan has risen.
