"I am in a bad shape since the past week. First, I got cough and then fever. Since the past few days, I have high fever the whole day. I think it's because of the change in weather. Don't think I have because I am coughing. I am not going to die soon. I don't have dry cough. This is all because of the weather."

"I am also scared but I don't have the money to get myself tested for COVID-19. Now I can't borrow from someone and get myself treated," she said.

Pooja added: "We were in the secure zone. But now, four positive cases have been detected near my house. For the last few days, I have lost my sense of taste as well. I am eating plain and simple khichdi."
