One of them died due to COVID-19; the other tested negative
In a goof-up at the Cuddalore Government General Hospital, the bodies of a 55-year-old man who died due to COVID-19 and a 51-year-old man who tested negative were mixed up and handed over to the relatives.
While one of the deceased was a Muslim from Bhuvanagiri near Chidambaram, the other was a Hindu from Panruti in the district.
The lapse came to light when the family from Panruti that received the body was preparing to conduct the last rites.
