Meanwhile, 17 deaths were reported across the state.
Civic officials from G North ward said that the octogenarian who had tested positive on April 7, had a history of hypertension. His son had also tested positive and since he was asymptomatic, he had been sent to the PWD guesthouse in Andheri. His 30-year-old daughter from Baliga Nagar had tested positive before him and was the second COVID-19 patient from Dharavi.
