People are afraid here. First time I came to know that someone is found corona positive in near my locality, Kolkata, India. She is a girl and has already been taken to hospital yesterday. However, someone told me that three people are found corona positive in near my locality but I am not sure about other two patients.

I have watched a video showing the girl was being taken to hospital. Corona can make someone popular. The video is being shared several whatsup account. However, I am not going to share the video here. Kolkata is still under lockdown 4.0 period though, it is going to end today. Lockdown 5.0 will be implemented by tomorrow with new guidelines that will allow hotels, restaurants, shopping malls and other hospitality services start their operations from 8th June. Religious places of worship will also be opened for public. However, these relaxations are not given to containment zones till 30th June.
According to firstpost.com, till now the number of corona patients in Kolkata has exceeded 5000 while toll climbed to 237. The girl who became corona positive was often seen in the park and you know people are more vulnerable in public places. Park is such a place where several people come to walk and spend their time. However, government suggested everyone not to spend much time in any park or outside home until they need to buy any essential things. Additionally, people are advised to wear mask on their face when they go outside home and follow social and physical distancing in public places and wash hands with soap for 20 seconds when they come back home.

The government said that we have to make a habit of living with the corona virus until the vaccine is discovered. So everyone needs to follow the guidelines that government has already suggested. Several doctors and police officials are getting corona positive because they come in direct contact with patients. They are real corona warriors. We must salute them.
The number of corona patients is increasing in India because of random testing of people. I have heard that 80 percent of corona patients are found asymptomatic. They are actually spreading the virus because they have no symptoms. That’s why people are advised to keep distance from each other. I think the girl who became corona positive failed to follow all the guidelines suggested by government. However, it is very difficult to say how she got infected. Now her family might be be put in quarantine including those people who recently came in contact with her. They will spread the virus until they are caught. In this way, the number of corona patients are getting multiplied. We need to break this chain by following social and physical distancing until the vaccine is discovered.
