Ludhiana, May 3

Two patients diagnosed with coronavirus died at Ludhiana’s Dayanand Medical College and Hospital, officials said.

One of the two patients was a 65-year-old man from Kapurthala. The second patient was a 62-year-old woman from Basti Jodhewal in Ludhiana.

They had both tested positive for coronavirus on Saturday, DMCH Medical Superintendent Dr Ashwani Chaudhary said.

Both had pre-existing health conditions—the woman had heart problems and the man had hypertension.

The development takes Ludhiana’s deaths to five and Kapurthala’s to two.

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).
