At least 10 cases of people who tested positive for COVID-19 have been reported till Wednesday in Worli Koliwada. A total of 108 people who came in contact with the patients there have been identified, and the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) and the Mumbai police are facing the difficult task of convincing them to go to an isolation ward. While 86 people were convinced, they were taken to the ward at M A Podar Hospital at Worli.
"The entire area has been sealed so that the infection does not spread. After finding these patients, we made a list which included those who were in contact with them. These included the people in the patient's house, neighbours and people who used to meet the patient," said a BMC official.
