His tenant added that he went to see a doctor to check if he was COVID infected, and the test result came negative. He has been advised several times not be troubled by current situation as things will come to pass. “He even called his son few days back and greeted him birthday wishes, he was alright but his refusal to eat and sleep could have worsened the depression” added housemate.
