Taking to mid-day, Dr Sunil Keshwani, director of NBC, said, "She had sustained 50 per cent burns and was kept in isolation. She was given the best treatment but in the past two days, the infection spread across her body. We had removed all the dead skin and replaced it with new skin. But she succumbed to the infection on Saturday morning. I saw her in the morning at around 7.30am but around 10 am, she passed away," he said. The body has been sent for post-mortem as per the medical guidelines.
