  • 4 years ago
At least fifty-seven girls who live at a government-run shelter in Kanpur district of Uttar Pradesh have been tested positive for Covid-19 in the past week. This means the institution is now a COVID-19 cluster in a town already battling a high caseload. Reportedly, the Kanpur District Magistrate has said that although five of those who had tested positive were, in fact, pregnant, their pregnancies occurred before they were admitted to the shelter in December last year. Meanwhile, the shelter has been sealed and staff members have been quarantined. Watch the top headlines in Nonstop 100.
