The pandemic has taken countless lives across the globe and one woman almost lost hers after she was believed to have died from the virus.

The 76-year-old woman named Shakuntala Gaikwad was tested positive for the virus and was brought to the hospital after her condition worsened.

 

She was getting treatment at the hospital but went unconscious and was thought to have died before her “dead body” was taken home by her family members.

 

Her “corpse” was then taken to the corpse burning ceremony when she shocked everyone after she opened her eyes and started crying.

 

Police officer Santosh said that she was then rushed to Hospital Silver Jubilee for treatment.

The COVID-19 crisis in India has worsened in the recent weeks and the country recorded more than 326,000 positive cases in 24 hours on Saturday.

 

Over 4,000 deaths have been recorded daily with 1.7 million new positive cases and 20,000 death reported in the past week.

 

This sharp rise has crippled the country’s health system especially in rural areas.
