2020-04-29 4

A heartbreaking video shows the moment two nurses stepped in to care for a baby boy after almost his entire family were infected with coronavirus.

The three-month-old child and his sister, one, from Katghora the Indian state of Chhattisgarh, were isolated when their mum, 27, tested positive for Covid-19.

Their uncle was called to pick them up, but after testing it was confirmed that he had the virus, which has infected more than 12,000 people and taken more than 400 lives in India.

The children’s grandmother then came to take them home – but doctors confirmed she too was suffering from the illness.
