A quarter and a month ago, the mother gave birth to healthy twins at the Rukmini Chinani Maternity Hospital in SSG. The mother as well as the family were overjoyed with the birth of twins. However, the happiness was short-lived as after giving birth to twins, the mother died.
After the mother died both children were given artificial milk and necessary treatment by the hospital. The newborn twins were discharged after they recovered.
The 15-day-old infants were brought to the pediatric ward of Sayaji Hospital with diarrhea and vomiting. The twins were subjected to covid tests before treatment and they tested positive. They were under the supervision of Dr. Sheila Iyer, the Head of the Pediatric Department. Dr. Iyer said the infants got infected from their father as he had also tested positive for the virus. After two weeks of intense treatment, both children have recovered and defeated coronavirus.
Special care was taken by all the staff as the twins had lost their mother within hours of birth. The infants have become favorite of the staff and will be discharged after full recovery.
