Three More Covid-19 Cases In State, One With No Travel History

Tamil Nadu reported three more positive cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) on Monday, taking the total number of patients to 12. However, one of three persons — a 54-year-old resident of Anna Nagar in Madurai — has no history of travel to an affected country or other States, according to Health Minister C. Vijayabaskar

The man, who is admitted to the isolation ward of Government Rajaji Hospital, Madurai, has co-morbidities including cardiac disease, uncontrolled diabetes and hypertension, he said. “While two patients have history of travel to an affected country, patient 12 (as the department refers to him), the 54-year-old man, has no history of travel. Co-morbidity is a risk. We will now examine if he had any contact with travellers from affected countries or affected State,” he told reporters.

The two other patients who tested positive are — a 25-year-old man from Purasawalkam in Chennai who had returned from London and is in the isolation ward of Rajiv Gandhi Government General Hospital and a 48year-old man from Tiruppur who had returned from London and is in the isolation ward of ESI Hospital, Coimbatore.
