Panamanian Pediatric specialist, Dr. Roberto Pe\u00f1alba, 59, died on March 28, 2020, in San Juan, Puerto Rico.\n<\/p>\n

The Panamanian doctor who tested positive for Covid-19 after returning to Panama and having participated in the National Zalsa Day and other danceable events in Puerto Rico, allegedly died of complications related to the virus.\n<\/p>\n

The information about the pediatrician, identified as Roberto Pe\u00f1alba, was communicated on Twitter and confirmed to NotiCel by Richie Viera, producer of the radio program Naci\u00f3n Z.\n<\/p>\n

This, in turn, informed NotiCel of having received the information from another Panamanian journalist, \u00c1lvaro Alvarado, former anchor of the RPCTV Panama channel.\n<\/p>\n

In the middle of this month, the doctor became the sixth coronavirus-positive case in Panama. After learning about his diagnosis and stay in Puerto Rico, Governor Wanda V\u00e1zquez Garced went to the country to urge that the people who were at the salsa event remain under observation.\n<\/p>\n
