Singer Kanika Kapoor has deleted her Instagram post where she revealed that she has tested positive for the novel Coronavirus. On March 25, news agency IANS reported that she tested positive for the third time. Kanika is undergoing treatment at the Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGIMS) in Lucknow. SGPGIMS Director Prof RK Dhiman said that the singer’s treatment will continue until at least two tests show her negative.
Kanika landed in controversy for not going into quarantine after her return from the UK. She landed in Mumbai from London on March 9 and later travelled to Lucknow and attended events and parties. She also attended a high-profile party of politicians that was attended by more than 100 people. She also went to attend a Holi party in Lucknow. Everyone that came in contact with the singer is tested negative.
In her post, Kanika wrote, “For the past 4 days I have had signs of flu, I got myself tested and it came positive for Covid-19. My family and I are in complete quarantine now and following medical advice on how to move forward. Contact mapping of people I have been in touch with is underway as well.”
Also, she wrote that she was scanned at the airport as per normal procedure but developed the symptoms later.
