The husband and daughter of a nurse who died after contracting coronavirus are both battling the deadly bug as well, according to her auntie.
Leilani Medel, 41, was a nurse in Bridgend, south Wales having immigrated from the Philippines.
Her death was reported on social media on Good Friday (April 10).
Her auntie Shiela Acheta wrote on Facebook: "In this distressed time, we express our love, concern and condolences to the bereaved family of my niece, Leilani Medel, 41, from Bridgend, Wales, born in Divisoria, Santiago City, who passed away due to Covid-19 pandemic.
"May her soul rest in peace.
"Please pray also for her husband and daughter in UK who are still in the hospital fighting for their lives and fighting against Covid-19."
On March 19 Leilani changed her profile picture on Facebook to include the banner: #ICannotStayAtHome,I'mANurse.
It is not known when or where she contracted the deadly bug.
She is one of several Phillipino healthworkers who have died since the outbreak began including John Alagos, Donald Suelto, Amor Gatinao and Elbert Rico.
Roughly 40 NHS staff have now died since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic in the UK.
The UK death toll is more than 11,000 and both figures are expected to rise in the coming days and weeks.
A spokeswoman for Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health said they could not comment on the individual case but added: “Our heartfelt sympathies and condolences are extended to all families and friends who have lost loved ones to Covid-19 and our thoughts are with them at this very difficult time.”
Today the Mirror launched the “Protect Us” campaign on behalf of all those serving Britain at its time of need.
Writing in today's paper the Voice of the Mirror said: "We must not forget the brave NHS workers who have lost their lives to the coronavirus.
"When the nation needed their dedication, kindness and expertise, they answered that call and, in doing so, paid the highest of prices.
"These were not just the very best of the health service. They were loved ones, mothers, fathers, sons and daughters.
"And many of them would be alive today if they had been provided with the proper kit.
"For all the wild promises by ministers there is still a woeful shortage of personal protection equipment. Stories from those working in our hospitals, clinics and care homes should shame the Government."
Speaking at Monday's Downing Street press conference, Dominic Raab praised the public for staying at home over the Easter weekend, and added: "Our plan is working.
"Please stick with it, and we'll get through this crisis together."
Details of how the lockdown will eventually be lifted remain unclear, however, with the Government repeatedly refusing to outline its "exit strategy".
Scientists advising the Government are expected to meet this week to review the latest figures, but Mr Raab insisted it was crucial that "we do not take our eye off the ball" with regards to social distancing.
