India Modi's aides are new coronavirus positive August 3 at 7:55
In India, where the new coronavirus infection has continued to spread, Secretary of State Shah, who has been an aide to Prime Minister Modi as a leader in infection control, revealed that the virus test was positive.
India's interior minister Shah revealed yesterday that he had tested positive for the new coronavirus on his Twitter account.
Although he is in good physical condition, he is admitted to the hospital according to the advice of a doctor, and he is calling for those who have come into contact with him in the past few days to be isolated and to be examined.
Shah, known as an aide to Prime Minister Modi, is leading infection control measures in late March such as severe restrictions on going out and resumption of economic activity throughout India.
According to local media, he also attended the cabinet meeting held last month with Prime Minister Modi.
It was said that the cabinet had taken measures against infection, such as keeping the distance between the attendees, but it seems that the confirmation of people who have contacted, including Prime Minister Modi, is in progress.
According to the Government of India, the number of infected people in India has continued to grow over the past few days, with more than 50,000 infected people per day. This is the third largest number in the world.
