Regular healthy meals, yoga, meditation and encouraging doctors, Mumbai police's very own centres have seen zero cases so far

The Mumbai police's COVID Care centre in Marol
Mumbai police now have their own two COVID-19 centres in the city to treat police personnel affected by the virus. The centres, built using the city police's Welfare Fund and located at its training centres in Kalina and Marol, have 250 and 256 beds respectively. The centres have been built amid more personnel getting infected and succumbing to the virus. A 34-year-old woman police constable who was treated at the Marol centre and recovered successfully said the centre feels like home.
Road to recovery
Zhumbar Shrikant Sarode, attached with the Dindoshi police, got infected while depositing a COVID-19 body at a crematorium. Having seen countless deaths, Sarode had no hope of surviving. But after getting admitted to the centre and getting help from another woman constable, she was able to beat the virus.
