'Happens only in India': Twitter reacts after 5 suspected coronavirus patients escape Nagpur hospital
“The five suspects left the hospital and to inspect the matter, I visited the hospital. I learned that the suspects left the ward for snacks but didn’t return,” he said.
Suryavanshi added that since this was a sensitive issue, the police is coordinating with the Mayo hospital staff.
However, Twitter became furious after the news broke on Saturday morning.

Another user wrote, “The most deadly Coronavirus strain: Coronavirus merged with human stupidity.”
Here are a few Twitter reactions:
