This picture of an elderly US couple is taking all over the internet as an 88-year-old wife desperately tried to reunite with her husband of 89 years old who is in the coronavirus isolation and the couple is talking through the glass window.
The couple in the picture is reuniting through the window of the quarantined care home at the centre of the US coronavirus outbreak.
The photos were obtained through dailymail.comand in the picture Dorothy Campbell, the 88-year-old woman is seen peering through the glass at her husband Gene, 89, who is trapped like a prisoner inside the Life Care Center nursing home in Kirkland, Washington State, as public officials try to contain the spread of the disease.
Panicked relatives have been trying to find out how their loved ones are faring at the home, which has gone into lockdown in efforts to stem the outbreak.
Will Coronavirus cancel your travel plans?
Many residents trapped inside the facility have long-term and chronic health conditions, which makes them more vulnerable to the risks of the disease.
Dorothy was seen desperately trying to communicate with her husband on Thursday after the centre banned visitors and sent its residents into quarantine inside.
The loving couple’s son Charlie Campbell, a retired registered nurse from Silver City, New Mexico, was pictured taking his mom up to the glass outside the elderly man’s room to get a glimpse of him inside.
Gene, wearing a medical gown, was up close to the window pane talking to his wife.
The forlorn expression on Dorothy’s face can be seen reflected in the glass as the couple clearly long to see each other.
