We are not just curious over the typo but also for the fact that the hospital only received her specimen on 19th, when in fact, Kanika herself said she wasn't well when she returned to India March 9. So why did it take 10 days for her sample to reach the lab? Whatever done is done, we wish Kanika to make a speedy recovery.
