By: Tupaki Desk | 16 March 2020 11:51 AM IST
A 45-year-old businessman, the first person to test positive for novel coronavirus in Delhi who has recovered recently shared his experience of the treatment for the virus. He said that there is nothing fear and the treatment is very smooth for most healthy individuals.
"There is no need to be scared. It is just like normal flu. If a healthy person reaches the doctor, our health system is well-equipped, one of the best in the world. Isolation ward is not like a two-by-two cell without sunlight," he said.
"Honestly, it was difficult only till the time they had not told me I was positive. But when a team of doctors came to see me at Safdarjung the next day where I had been shifted, they made me so comfortable saying 'it is curable, you are a healthy person and it is just cold and cough and it would just go. It just takes a little more time than the usual cold and cough'," he added.
He is one of the seven positive cases of COVID-19 that were reported at the national capital. Out of them, a patient had died and two of them were discharged after undergoing medications and treatment.
The official records state that till Sunday the cases of the novel coronavirus have reached 110. Maharashtra and Kerala are in the first two places in terms of the most affected states. More than 6,000 people have died worldwide due to the virus.
