When he developed fever-like symptoms recently he visited a private doctor who referred him to the Candolim primary health centre where his swab sample was taken on July 13. The report came positive on Friday.

“He had minimal contact with others and was staying in his own apartment. As he had come in contact with the doctor we have taken the doctor’s swab sample for testing today,” Nazareth said.
