A news item involving William Frankland (allergist) was featured on Wikipedia's Main Page in the In the news section on 3 April 2020.

I have removed this as Bill said in a recent interview with Dan Snow ( https://player.fm/series/dan-snows-history-hit-106527/the-war-in-the-east-part-2-with-dr-bill-frankland) [14:25 mins in) how many times he had been misquoted regarding this - "not true - we were never close enough to see what happened".

Regarding this edit, questioning why the article states "According to his son, Frankland died from COVID-19", the reason I phrased it like this is that none of the other obituaries I could find mentioned a cause of death. This one states that the care home he died in did not cite a cause. I've just looked to see if there are any new sources that mention COVID, but I can't find any. My guess would be that he had symptoms but hadn't been tested before he died. Suggestions for how we can best deal with this welcome. Cordless Larry ( talk) 06:29, 21 May 2020 (UTC) reply

Ignore that: I've just found this in the BMJ, which includes his cause of death. Cordless Larry ( talk) 06:37, 21 May 2020 (UTC) reply
