The novel Coronavirus has impacted a lot of people not just in India but the world over. Among many celebs that have tested positive for COVID-19 is TV actress Deepika Singh whose mother has tested positive for Corona. Deepika who was last seen in Ekta Kapoor's hit serial Kavach 2. The actress who stays with her husband Rohit and his family in Mumbai is deeply concerned after her mom got her results and are in Delhi. The actor's family has reportedly not got the test results in hand and the hospital refuses to hand it over to them thus delaying the course of treatment. Deepika posted a video on her Instagram requesting for help from Delhi Chief Minister Mr Arvind Kejriwal.
In the video, Deepika says, "It's a request message to Delhi Government and Arvind Kejriwal Ji. My 59-year-old mother has tested positive. Her test was done 5 days back but we received the result today and that too not a hard copy. My father was told to just click a picture and with that, we can't admit her to any of the hospitals. I stay here in Mumbai and have a small child due to which I can't travel to Delhi. She had a fever and had no other symptoms of COVID-19. But now as she stays in a joint family where 45 people stay together along with my grandmother, who is also facing breathing issues now. My father too is suspected. My younger sister was taking care of them since yesterday so we don't know if she is also affected. We really need to get all of their tests done".
She added, "We have been suggested to keep her isolated at home but at the same time her chest X-ray has to be done. So staying at home we are not clear how will that be possible. She is feeling extremely weak and she needs urgent treatment but we have no source not are we getting any guidance. We are trying for a private hospital. But they are saying there are no beds keep her home and treat but it's not safe to keep her home as there are 45 other members staying with her. I really need help please help us".
The medical situation in Delhi is quite grim as of now, many people have been complaining of lack of beds and poor arrangements for those who are tested positive for Corona. We pray for the speedy recovery of Deepika's mother and her family.
