Groom dies & 100 guests Covid-19 infected

[Still Waters]

A wedding ceremony in rural Patna a fortnight ago where the groom was running high fever and died two days later his wedding, with his body cremated without being tested for Covid-19, appears to have set off the biggest infection chain in Bihar so far, health department officials said on Tuesday.

More than 100 people have tested positive in Paliganj sub-division of Patna district, about 55 km from the state capital, in the last few days, out of over 350 who have been tested upon contact tracing, they said. Fifteen of his relatives who attended the wedding tested positive for the contagion and apparently infected others.

On June 15, the date of wedding, he was running high fever and wanted the ceremony to be deferred, but relented upon the insistence of family members who made him swallow paracetamol tablets and go through the rituals.

People who have it but are not showing symptoms so do not know I can give a little slack too, just a little.

But when the groom obivously is sick then wtf are you people doing putting him around 100 people.
