A nine-month-old baby boy from Manchester is believed to be the second baby to contract coronavirus in the UK.
Cassian Coates suffered from a fever and a cold for several days.
His concerned parents Myroslava and Callum took him to hospital where he was diagnosed with coronavirus, despite neither of them having shown any symptoms.
The family are now all self-isolating at their home.

Cassian is being treated with Calpol as if he was suffering with a cold.
Myroslava told Sky News: "When we got there, we had to go through special measures and ring a certain number for them to let us in. The waiting room actually had a big sign up saying 'suspected case'.
"Me and my husband were like 'oh my God', then a nurse walked past and said 'yeah, that's you guys'.
"We went in, then the doctor came in with a mask on, did some basic checks, temperature, checked his ears and said 'yeah, it's the coronavirus strand'."
The couple were left in shock following the news, especially as nobody else in the family has suffered coronavirus symptoms.
Myroslava added: "We wondered where he caught it because my husband and I are both fine.
"I did panic but I cannot express how fantastic and reassuring our GP was. They said that with children this age they are diagnosing by symptoms.
"We were told to go home to self-isolate for two weeks and keep giving him Calpol as if it was a cold."
She said: "There are peaks and troughs but thankfully Cassian is over the worst of it.''
A new born baby in London became the world's youngest coronavirus patient last week.
The baby is now said to be recovering and no longer in danger.
His mother tested positive after giving birth.
