Six of A Family Tested Positive for COVID-19 in Telangana

Telangana Government is yet to release the new Medical Bulletins which are pending since the 26th of this month. Health Minister Eetla Rajendra spoke to the media a little while ago and revealed that a family of six in Old City of Hyderabad tested positive due to contact with a patient who traveled to Delhi.

He also revealed that two or three health department staff involved in screening at the airport also tested positive to the contagious virus. However, he did not reveal the exact count of the patients infected so far. In Andhra Pradesh, there are thirteen cases recorded so far.

Around 20,000 suspected people were in home-quarantine and other Government facilities across the state. A few media reports suggest that some areas in Hyderabad and Rangareddy districts were declared as Red Zones but the Health Minister refused those reports.

But there are some pictures of Red Zone Banners in some colonies which are doing rounds in the social media.
