The entire team treating coronavirus at RML Hospital in Delhi has been isolated. On Sunday evening, the entire team has been ordered to go to the home quarantine due to symptoms in a nurse. According to sources, the team consists of 14 people including doctors, nurses. They were treating patients in ward number five of RML Hospital from day one. However, hospital spokesperson Smriti Tiwari says that no one is infected at the moment. As a precaution, all people are placed on home quarantine for two weeks.
At the same time, a senior doctor of the hospital said that after receiving symptoms of fever of more than 100 degrees in a nurse on Sunday evening, it has been decided to send the entire team home. He said that so far none of the team has been exposed to infection, but the sample’s investigation report is awaited.
According to the information, three doctors of the same team of RML were doing a thermal screening of those coming from abroad at Delhi Airport from 18 January. Some of these doctors also went to Wuhan in China from where they came back to Delhi with the batch of many Indian citizens. After this, two doctors went on home quarantine by themselves. One of these was the birthday of the doctor’s daughter, but he could not attend due to being at the airport.
