Raymond McDowall, the 67-year-old man who died on December 12, shortly after arriving at the Paradise Beach Hotel in Villa to begin quarantine, did not die from COVID-19.
Vernette McDowall, Raymond’s wife of 40 years, made this clear to SEARCHLIGHT on Thursday while speaking to a reporter from her home in Layou.
She said an autopsy done on Tuesday revealed that Raymond passed from deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
DVT is a serious condition that occurs when a blood clot forms in a vein located deep inside your body.
