According to a report by news18, the 20-day-old infant is yet to be named and could probably be the youngest one in the country to beat the virus. The paediatrician said that 20 kids below two years of age have come out victors over the coronavirus disease. The doctor also said that the 20-day-old girl was admitted to the hospital on May 1. She was discharged on May 9.

The baby girl is said to have contracted the illness from a close relative, and the baby’s mother who was always close surprisingly was not infected.

Truly, in times of despair, such news comes as a breath of fresh air. As the world continues to struggle against the deadly outbreak of the novel coronavirus, babies recovering surely puts our hearts at ease. Now, it is our responsibility to ensure that we do the best we can to break the cycle of transmission, and the best way to do it is by practising strict social distancing. If our doctors are fighting everyday and risking their lives to save the lives of our loves ones, the least we can do is not add to their troubles.
