After getting cured of Covid-19, 33-year-old woman was discharged amid a round of applause from the doctors and chief medical officer (CMO) at the civil hospital here on Friday.

With her recovery, all four Covid-19 cases in the district have been cured. On April 14, two children had been discharged from the hospital after testing negative for the infection. They were also given a cheerful farewell.

CMO Dr Surender Nain said, “It’s an achievement for the health department and local administration that all four patients battling with Covid-19 have been cured and sent home. These patients have also been told to stay in home quarantine and improve their health.”

He added that the Rori woman came out of the isolation ward with her three-month-old child and the entire staff bade them a cheerful farewell.
