Deathedit
Msgr Piñera died in Santiago on 21 June 2020, aged 104.[6] Piñera had contracted COVID-19 a month earlier during the COVID-19 pandemic in Chile. Although the government initially denied the disease to be the cause of death, the certificate issued by the Civil Registry and Identification Service indicates "pneumonia due to COVID-19" as the cause.[7] At the time of his death, he was the oldest Catholic bishop in the world, and the last surviving bishop appointed by Pius XII.[citation needed]
