A retiree who was found dead after failing to appear for the Covid vaccine may have died up to 12 years ago, according to reports.
The woman, baptized locally as Christina Malley, was discovered at her home in Cove, Aberdeen, Scotland, on February 25.
An alarm was triggered when nurses came to the property in search of the retiree who did not show up for the Covid-19 vaccination, the Daily Record reported.
The remains of Mrs Malley, who was supposed to be over 80 years old, were later found inside the property, leading to a police investigation.
Officials are still trying to determine exactly when and how she died, but it is feared that this may have happened more than a decade ago, reports the Evening Express.
