A woman doctor from Canada has tested coronavirus positive in Lucknow, becoming the 10th positive case in Uttar Pradesh.
The patient, who tested positive late Wednesday night, has been admitted in an isolation ward in King George's Medical University (KGMU).
Her blood sample reported positive result at the KGMU laboratory, and will now be sent for reconfirmation to the National Institute of Virology in Pune.
According to KGMU Medicine Department, Prof Himanshu said on Thursday that the woman is a doctor based in Toronto, Canada. She travelled to Lucknow via London and Mumbai on March 8.
When she was scanned at the Lucknow airport, she did not show any symptoms of coronavirus but later developed fever and cough and contacted the KGMU doctors on her own.
Her husband who tested negative for the virus was also admitted to the isolation ward.
