A Domino’s pizza delivery driver from Scotland has died from coronavirus.
Mofizul Islam, 49, worked at the takeaway restaurant in Eskbank, Midlothian which is still open.
A source told The Sun that the restaurant is too small for social distancing rules to be observed: ‘One of the drivers has died but they have remained open as usual.
There is a chance that he could have passed the virus to every person he delivered to.’

Staff were told of Mr Islam’s death on Monday. He’d stopped working after the government announced the lockdown and died last week.
According the Sun, Domino’s said they still hadn’t been notified about a possible Covid-19 case, but have done a thorough deep clean to reassure everyone.
The number of coronavirus deaths in the UK stands at 7,978.
