Digging deep: Diaspora Jews are still flying loved ones to Israel for burial

On March 25, London resident Leon Simons, 88, started feeling unwell. He was unable to get up from his chair, so he and his wife Deborah were taken to the hospital. Neither was showing any symptoms of the coronavirus, but as a matter of standard practice they were tested for the disease and found to have contracted it.
