In a heartening gesture, they have sent fruits and baby foods to a coronavirus-positive woman who they moved to hospital for delivery when she was struggling to find transport due to her COVID-19 symptoms. After reaching the Dhaka Medical College Hospital or DMCH last Monday, the woman from Old Dhaka gave birth to a baby boy, said Bangshal Police OC Md Shaheen Fakir. The mother and her child returned home after spending two days at the hospital and they were doing fine, OC Shaheen said, and added that the gifts were sent on Sunday afternoon. On May 6, in sheer desperation the woman came to the police with coronavirus symptoms after failing to get a ride to the hospital. She has a seven-year-old son and his husband is an employee at a shop in Naya Bazar.
