14 Italians with COVID-19 admitted in Gurugram’s Medanta

Gurugram, March 5 (SocialNews.XYZ) The group of 14 Italian tourists who travelled across three states at least before arriving from Rajasthan to New Delhi and tested positive for COVID-19 has been sent to the Medanta hospital here in Haryana.

The hospital issued a statement late on Wednesday that said: "Medanta has received, at the special request of the government, 14 asymptomatic persons suspected to have COVID-19.

"These patients are housed on a completely separate floor, in an isolated quarantine floor, with no contact with the rest of the hospital. There is a dedicated medical team wearing protective gear looking after these patients.

"All items used on the floor are isolated to that floor. The isolated floor will completely contain the disease even with these asymptomatic persons. All other hospital operations are operating as normal, and there is no increased risk to patients, visitors or staff."

The group reportedly travelled parts of Haryana in Hisar, Agra in Uttar Pradesh and the Rajasthan capital.

Rajasthan Health Minister Raghu Sharma said on Wednesday, around 215 people came in contact with the 23-member Italian tourists' group, which visited six districts between February 21 and February 29.
