Five more people were admitted to Delhi's Ram Manohar Lohia (RML) hospital on Tuesday evening. According to the hospital authorities, the people had returned from China and are suspected to carry the Novel Coronavirus (nCoV). Out of the five, four are men and one is a woman.
These suspects were admitted based on the symptoms of cough and cold. Their samples will be sent to Pune's National Institute of Virology.
Till now, RML has hosted 12 admitted cases of the suspected virus.
According to RML spokesperson Smriti Tiwari: "They must have learnt about the reporting process and precautions to be taken regarding nCoV from the media. They visited the hospital on their own and upon learning they had returned from China were admitted to the isolation ward,".
