Panaji. Goa’s ruling BJP MLA Clafasio Dias is again infected with Corona. He has been admitted to the hospital. He was also found infected earlier and was discharged from the hospital only last week. An official gave this information on Friday. State Health Secretary Nila Mohanan told reporters, “The MLAs were found positive in the re-conducted investigation. They have been shifted from ESI Hospital to Goa Medical College Hospital. They are having trouble breathing.”
Mohanan said the report of MLA Dias’s investigation last week was negative when he was shifted to ESI Hospital but was found positive again on Friday.
He said that this means that the virus has been present in the body of the MLA. The ICMR has made a change in the guideline, according to which, the patient can be discharged without examination if looked fine. So he was discharged without investigation last time.
Dias is the first state legislator to be found Kovid-19 positive.
