A mother gave birth after testing positive with corona and she narrated her experience.
For 10 days after giving birth to her first child, the mother was not allowed near him after she tested positive for coronavirus, for fear of infecting her newborn.

She had been preparing to have the baby by caesarean section on March 16, but everything changed when her grandmother, who the couple had been seeing every day, caught the virus. Her grandmother later died from the disease.
