The infections reportedly happened after two Covid-19 patients and two suspected cases were shifted here from the Kasturba Hospital a fortnight ago. While the two patients were kept in the isolation ward, the two suspect cases were kept with other patients in the ICU from where the infection may have spread. Last week, two nurses serving in the ICU tested positive, and then the infections spread quickly, affecting nearly 29 including the doctors. The BMC has taken the swabs of another 270 staffers and patients at the hospital for testing, and pending the outcome, the hospital has been declared a containment zone. Since such a large number of cases have come from a single location, the BMC has ordered a probe to ascertain if Covid-19 protocols were adhered to or not while dealing with the two patients and two suspects admitted there last month. This Sunday, eight people died in Mumbai of Covid-19 and what’s even more appalling is that neither of them had a travel history. This surge took the number of deaths in the city to 30, giving it a dubious distinction of the city with the most deaths due to the epidemic. However, the state Maharashtra accounts for a total of 45 COVID-19 deaths. A total of 13 persons, including several women, died in Maharashtra on Sunday (April 5) due to Covid-19. This is the highest number of fatalities in a single day till date. <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">City/State </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Coronavirus cases </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Deaths </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Quarantine </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Maharashtra </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">777 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">45 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">49708 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Mumbai </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">458 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">30 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9960975000000001pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;"> unknown </td></tr></tbody></table> Mumbai’s victims were aged between 52-80 and had a severe medical history There is no particular reason behind the deaths in the city, except for the age profile of the victims. They were all in the age bracket of 52-80 and suffered from various other ailments besides COVID-19, according to the BMC. Among the recent coronavirus victims is a 70-year-old woman and seven men, most of them suffering from other illnesses and tested positive for COVID-19, said the BMC.

Mumbai noted highest one-day spur after COVID-19 entered Dharavi The number of positive cases in Maharashtra increased by 113 to touch 777 out of which 103 were from Mumbai on Sunday (April 5), the BrihanMumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) said.

"It is this congestion that makes Dharavi most vulnerable in pandemics like COVID-19. The norms of 'social distancing' don't exist in a place where often 8-10 persons live in 100 sq. feet tenement, people queue up for basics like water supply or toilets, ration shops, etc," a local plastic businessman Salim Shaikh, living in Antop Hill told IANS. Simultaneously, a total of 54 patients, including 20 today who fully recovered in the state have been discharged. More than 900,000 surveyed and screened for Coronavirus in Mumbai Thanks to the widespread of the disease in the maximum city, its authorities have upped their screening process. So far, over 900,000 people have been surveyed and screened in Mumbai, while the high-risk contacts living in densely populated areas have been shifted to lodges or hostels. Over 10,000 COVID-19 tests have been conducted in Mumbai by both government and private labs, said an official of Mumbai government. Presently, the state has a total of 46,586 persons under home quarantine, and 3,122 are in institutional quarantine. And out of 3,078 teams, 519 teams have been assigned to Mumbai for conducting a door-to-door survey. Of this, over 190 teams are assigned to Navi Mumbai.
