A 73-year-old coronavirus patient, who was admitted at Delhi’s Lok Nayak Jayaprakash Hospital (LNJP) after being diagnosed positive with the life-threatening disease, was discharged on Tuesday after his two tests for COVID-19 came negative.
According to hospital administration, patient Manmohan Singh has been further advised to quarantine himself for next 14 days as precautionary measure. Singh, who recovered fully despite being suffering from multiple health related problems, was taken out by hospital with staff clapping for him.
Delhi’s Health Minister Satyendar Jain, a team of doctors, nurses and other health officials from LNJP, were also present when Singh was being discharged from the hospital.
“Singh was diagnosed positive with COVID-19 and was being treated at the LNJP Hospital. I am relieved to announce that he is now in full spirit and has been discharged recently,” Jain tweeted.
