SHO, doctor among 28 test positive

Our Correspondent

UNA, AUGUST 31

The district recorded 28 coronavirus cases, the highest-ever spike in a single day, today. A 70-year-old woman from Samoor Kalan village died due to Covid yesterday. The victim was admitted to the district hospital with flu-like symptoms.

The infected persons included an SHO. Besides, a doctor and her husband, employed in the Excise Department in Punjab, tested positive. The doctor is posted in a health institution in the district and the couple lives on the periphery of the city.

Seven members of a family from Andaura were also tested positive. They are the primary contacts of a government employee working in Amb. Five members of another family from Chandpur panchayat in Haroli were also among the patients.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
