Covid-positive Sourav Ganguly 'stable'

Kolkata, december 28

BCCI president Sourav Ganguly has been admitted to a city hospital after testing positive for Covid but the former India captain is “stable”, the medical institution where he is undergoing treatment said today.

Ganguly, who has got both doses of the Covid vaccine, was rushed to the Woodlands Hospital on Monday evening as a precautionary measure after his RT-PCR test returned positive.

The 49-year-old had undergone an emergency angioplasty earlier this year and given his medical history, a panel of the doctors is keeping a close watch on his health.

“He received Monoclonal Antibody Cocktail therapy on the same night and is currently hemodynamically stable,” Dr Rupali Basu, MD and CEO of Woodlands Hospital, said in a statement. — PTI
