Kolkata/IBNS: Former Union Minister and ex-Lok Sabha MP, Babul Supriyo, his wife, father and multiple staff have tested positive for COVID-19.

This is the third time since 2020 Supriyo has tested positive for coronavirus.

He tweeted, "Me, my wife, Dad, multiple staff, hv all tested positive, but my concern is the superhigh Rs.61000/- price of the Cocktail jab that needs to be given SOS to seriously ill #COVID19 patients•Dad who is 84, needed the jab SOS & I hv to buy it on-the-spot• Hw can the EWS afford it?"

"And, this is my 3rd time•First in Nov20 when I lost my Maa & somehow saved my Dad, then again in April 21 & now not really worried abt the positive-ness but the sheer number of individuals who got contracted & no way to find out who gave it to whom• VERY FEW r wearing Masks," the Trinamool Congress leader added.
