VADODARA: In yet another en masse discharge of Covid-19 patients, as many as 29 people returned home from the Covid care centre on Ajwa Road and two hospitals in the city on Tuesday.
While 25 persons were discharged from the Ebrahim Bawani ITI on Ajwa Road, three recovered in GMERS, Gotri and one in Solace Hospital.
The institute, which has been converted into Covid care centre, had earlier set a record by releasing 45 Covid-19 patients on a single day on April 23. All were from Nagarwada area, which has been declared a red zone, due to massive spike in coronavirus cases. The 25 patients discharged on Tuesday from here are also from the same area.
Salman Dudhwala, a businessman from Nagarwada, who was one of the 25 discharged, said that he had stayed at the care centre for around 18 days. “We had minimum interaction with each other and maintained social distancing in the centre too. Most of our time was spent praying and reading. The facilities there were very good and doctors took good care of us,” said Dudhwala.
Three persons were also discharged from the GMERS, Gotri hospital. These included a father-son duo from Nagarwada - Vijay Rajput (27) and his nine-year-old son Jigar. Jigar is the third child to have recovered in the hospital.
Siddhi Patel, wife for former councillor Pranay Patel from Amdavadi Pol, also walked out fit from the Solace Hospital.

Two other patients from Bodeli were discharged from a Covid care centre in Chhota Udepur.Social activist Zuber Gopalani, who is coordinating work at the ITI, said that the entire group discharged from the facility was keen on becoming plasma donors. “We do not have a facility for plasma treatment as of now. But as and when it's set up, they will donate plasma."
