Family members accompanying a female patient severely ill with the Coronavirus, went on a rampage against staff and property at the Benghazi Medical Center, having mistakenly assumed their mother to have passed away.

The center said that the woman was infected with the virus and transferred to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) due to the seriousness of her condition, however, those accompanying her, thinking she had died, began to smash parts of the hospital, causing panic and terror amongst other patients and medical staff, only to discover that their loved-one was in fact still alive, according to a statement issued by the center on its official Facebook page.
