Fathima who is from Sri Lanka has been admitted to hospital as she was having respiratory problems and the doctors said that she might have Coronavirus. Her family has to face many problems as they were kicked out of their house and their house was disinfected. The family was not treated well and they were treated like animals, Fathima’s husband reported.
The hospital officials said that Fathima died on her own and her son was asked to identify the body. The family was asked to quarantine themselves for 14 days. Her husband was reported about the body parts of Fathima which were taken to test them but Fathima’s husband questioned why the hospital needs the body parts if she had Coronavirus??
