Telangana tracing contacts of woman tested positive after death
Health officials in Telangana's Ranga Reddy district were trying to trace the contacts of a woman who tested positive after her death.
The 55-year-old woman, who was running a Kirana (provisions) shop in Chegur village, near Hyderabad, died on April 1 at the government-run Osmania Hospital in the city. The next day she was cremated in the village.
However, the samples collected during her treatment at the hospital later showed she was Covid-19 positive. It was only on Friday that the health department declared she tested positive.
The news sent the village into a tizzy. About 30 teams of health officials, revenue and police swung into action to screen the villagers.
Telangana has so far reported death of nine persons due to covid-19. Barring this woman, all others had attended the Tablighi Jamaat event in Delhi last month.
