A nine-month old baby girl who was found dead in a house overflowing with bags of dirty nappies and piles of rubbish was suffering from Covid-19 at the time of her death, as it's revealed her mother was heard shouting 'Go, go, go' on the night she died.
Police found the 'unresponsive' infant inside the home at Doonside in Sydney's west on Monday at about 10am after responding to a concern for welfare call. The child couldn't be revived.
Both of her parents in their 30s were also infected with Covid but the official cause of death still remains a mystery to investigators.
Officers cordoned off the area as detectives spoke with the baby's parents.
The couple have claimed they awoke to find the the baby girl and called Triple-0.
However new details on Tuesday reveal 'small inconsistencies' in what each parent told police in subsequent interviews, 7News reported.
