Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) chairman Dr G Satheesh Reddy on Monday said that a mechanism has been developed with which one ventilator can be used by multiple COVID-19 patients.

Probably in the next couple of days, we will be ready with the final product with new features added to it," added the DRDO chairman.

With 227 people tested positive in less than 24 hours, India on Monday saw the sharpest spike in coronavirus cases in a single day ever since the spread of the virus became known in the country. The total number of coronavirus cases now stands at 1,251, health ministry data showed.

The World Health Organization said the coronavirus spreading through the air is only a rumor. The Covid-19 is not an 'airborne' disease. If you want to protect yourself, then take care of your hygiene. Keep a distance of 1 meter from people. Wash your hands continuously with soap and water. Also, do not touch the eyes, nose and mouth.
