The family members of Santana Das claimed that she had her morning walks regularly. She also purchased vegetables from door-to-door delivery.

The woman is currently being treated at Assam Medical College and Hospital (AMCH) in Dibrugarh.
Most of the recent COVID-19 cases in Assam have been reported among the returnees from other States. At such a time the source of infection of Santana Das has become a matter of concern for the local residents of Digboi as well as the government authorities.
