Gono Forum MP Mokabbir discharged from hospital

Gono Forum lawmaker Mokabbir Khan, who had been undergoing treatment at the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) for coronavirus infections, has been discharged by the doctors as his condition improved.

“I returned home around 2pm today (Sunday) as my fever subsided and breathing and other problems reduced significantly. As I almost recovered from the illness, doctors allowed me to return home,” he told UNB.

The MP from Sylhet 2 constituency said he is now in self-isolation at his home.

Asked whether he tested negative for Covid-19, Mokabbir said he will undergo a follow-up test within a few days.

On June 15, he was admitted to the CMH with fever, cough and breathing problems.

Soon after hospitalization, his samples were tested and founded to be positive for coronavirus.
