Many thanks to all my friends & well wishes for your prayers and wishes.
While she was at the hospital, she told NewsMeter, "I can feel the panic around me, some people gleefully also writing my obituary, many spreading wrong info & I think that is why people are scared of self-disclosure. There is so much of unnecessary phobia around this. I think it is overrated and the medical fraternity is not helping either."
Meanwhile, a techie who was residing in Mahendra hills of Hyderabad has been kept under isolation in Gandhi Hospital. 80 people associated with him are being tested. His blood samples are sent to Pune virology centre. Apart from him, one from Rajasthan and Delhi are also tested, positive for the virus.
