Why did George Harrison die in his home?

    He died at his friend Gavin DeBecker's home, not his own home.

    With cancer that has spread, the doctors and the patient often know when death is near. Harrison had the means to have home hospice care, with skilled nursing services making him as comfortable as possible. I presume he chose this over dying in a hospital.

    His friend, his wife, and his son were at his side when he died.

    A lot of people who are terminally ill and who have the time to do so make arrangements to die somewhere other than a hospital.  They prefer a more home-like atmosphere; it's more restful and comfortable, more serene.

    Why wouldn't he?  As I understand it, he died at a friend's home, but what difference does it make? People die in many different places.

    Harrison died from lung cancer in 2001 at the age of 58, two years after surviving a knife attack by an intruder at his Friar Park home. His remains were cremated and the ashes were scattered according to Hindu tradition in a private ceremony in the Ganges and Yamuna rivers in India.

    He didn't like to go out due to the lockdown.
