Srinagar, 9/4: Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has tested positive for Covid-19 weeks after his father Farooq Abdullah was infected.
In a tweet on Friday, Omar Abdullah said, “For a year I did my best to dodge this damn virus but it’s finally caught up with me. I tested positive for Covid19 this afternoon. I’m completely asymptotic. Based on medical advice I’m self-isolating at home & monitoring my parameters like oxygen saturation levels etc (sic)”.
