On 22 April, a 33-year-old trader based in Dimapur had tested positive in Gauhati Medical College and Hospital (GMCH).
The man had been admitted to a private hospital in Dimapur for treatment but the hospital referred him to the GMCH as the State did not have testing facilities at that point of time. He tested positive hours after he was shifted in an ambulance.
