Mrs Isaako, 30, collapsed dead at her home in Emerton, in Sydney’s west, on Monday August 23 in front of her husband Sako and three young children.

The Daily Telegraph understands that Mrs Isaako’s terrified husband called triple-0 begging paramedics to rush to their home on Monday, telling them his wife was not breathing and that he was also “very sick”.

In the statement issued by the family, it was revealed Mrs Isaako died of pneumonia.

“Results from the coroner declared Ianeta’s cause of death was pneumonia,” the statement reads.

“Ianeta had tested positive for Covid-19 on Friday 13th August. NSW Health gave consent for Ianeta to isolate in her home, inside her bedroom for 14 days.

“Ianeta, her husband Isaako and their children had complied with all directions given by NSW Health.”

The family stated it was looking into legal action over false reports surrounding her death.

“Ianeta was not vaccinated yet. We – as a family – had been conversing and teaching each other about vaccinations and Covid-19 only days before she had passed,” the statement reads.

“We have been made aware of false information rapidly circulating the internet and media outlets.”

“We will be looking at taking legal action against those who have contributed to false details of Ianeta, Isaako and their children.”
