Relatives also came to visit her at her house when she was sick which resulted in one of them testing positive. Following contact tracing, all of the other people in the same household have tested positive for Covid-19. Some of them have been quarantined while others have been sent to the hospital.

Covid-19 is widespread now more than ever in the nation. Please stay at home whenever you can and if you need to go out, please wear a mask and maintain physical distancing.
