Cab driver turns Good Samaritan Updated: Updated: Binu makes a living shifting patients between hospitals, labs Share Article Binu makes a living shifting patients between hospitals, labs Binu U.K., a cab driver from Ponnurunni, takes one too many showers a day though not out of any phobia. For someone now left to make a living transporting the pandemic-infected, that is the minimum he can do to have at least a notion of safety. Binu, 41, used to run tour packages before the outbreak of COVID-19 left the tourism industry in ruins. Things were beginning to look up and he had even organised a tour to Kullu-Manali and Goa earlier this year when the second wave of the pandemic hit, nipping his nascent hope in the bud.
