Two NCH Doctors Test Positive for Covid-19 in Surat

Two doctors at New Civil Hospital (NCH) in Surat, India, have tested positive for COVID-19.

One doctor, a 27-year-old woman, recently traveled to Visakhapatnam and developed symptoms before testing positive.

The other doctor, a 25-year-old woman, also showed symptoms and tested positive.

Both are currently isolated and receiving treatment at NCH.

Health officials suggest one doctor may have contracted the virus through the other.

Although no designated COVID wards are set up, isolation facilities are available, and symptomatic patients are being tested, including those in private hospitals.
