COVID 19 Latest Update: Chennai reports Corona virus death as 60-year-old Rajiv Gandhi government hospital dies

COVID 19 Latest Updates: A 60-year-old man who was treated at the Rajiv Gandhi Government General Hospital (RGGGH) in Chennai died on Wednesday, marking a long-term death that marks a shared death in the city.

Hospital authorities confirmed that the deceased was identified as Mohan and had been taken to the hospital with a variety of previous health conditions.

Mohan’s condition is crucial, according to a hospital source. He suffered from severe comorbidities including diabetes and chronic respiratory problems, which greatly damaged his ability to recover from the 199 infection.

RGGGH doctors said that despite rigorous health care and ongoing monitoring, his health deteriorated rapidly due to the complex role of the virus and its underlying diseases.

Officials from Tamil Nadu Health Bureau also confirmed the death, noting that the comorbidities in Mohan played an important role in worsening the effects of the infection.

“While the direct cause of death is Covid-19, the patient’s existing medical conditions have greatly contributed to the severity of the disease,” a senior official noted.

Tamil Nadu reported relatively few active Covid-19 cases in comparison to several other Indian states, which occurred in this event.

Health authorities said the situation remains under control, with no signs of a massive surge, despite the state continuing to monitor the virus closely.

The official added: “The total number of infections in Tamil Nadu is still very low and we are taking all precautions to avoid any revival.”

“This unfortunate case reminds people who have comorbidities must continue to take necessary precautions, including timely vaccination and avoiding crowded space.”

Sources within the health department said the government continues to maintain surveillance and testing, especially in urban clusters.

Hospitals are also advised to be prepared, especially in dealing with high-risk patients (such as older people or patients with chronic diseases).

Meanwhile, even if the number of cases remains small, public health experts have reiterated the importance of continuing vigilance.

They stressed that among vulnerable groups, the risk of serious outcomes remains high and urged citizens not to give up on guards.
