This is an incredibly tragic situation, and there’s really not much else that can be said. Viggo was only a few days old when he passed away.
I can’t even begin to imagine the pain David Pastrnak and his family are feeling right now. It’s not the kind of pain you’d ever wish on another person.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Pastrnak, his entire family and his friends during this horrific time for them.
