Corona virus contamination has been under control in Tamil Nadu and throughout the country for more than a year. Unfortunately, since December, the number of cases has significantly increased in various states, including Tamil Nadu.

Accordingly, the daily number of Covid cases in the Coimbatore district is increasing day by day, with about 64 new cases reported as of 19.04.2023.

In this regard, the country has not reported any coronavirus deaths in the recent year. However, Coimbatore has been recorded with three covid deaths in the last 30 days, though the officials claim it to be caused by comorbidity.

A 75-year-old woman from Rathinapuri tested positive for covid on April 15th and was being treated at the Coimbatore Government Medical College and Hospital.

Despite receiving treatment for two weeks, she died as a result of the infection. Her body was later handed to her family members before being cremated at the Nanjundapuram power crematorium.
