The nephew of the so-called Mimo de México and president of the Mario Moreno Cantinflas Foundation contracted the virus at the beginning of the year. At the end of January he had to be intubated due to the consequences it caused in his body.
A few days ago, the actor, too, had undergone a tracheostomy to reduce his dependence on an artificial respirator.
“With much pain we said goodbye to my Uncle Eduardo Moreno Laparade, rest in peace, I will always remember you with much affection“, wrote Mario Moreno Ivanova, grandson of Cantinflas.
