Meet the two twins who have just come to life: Covid and Corona

They are two babies born in India, a boy and a girl, whose parents have decided to name them Covid and Corona. They say that their names will always remind us of the difficulty of mankind in the time of this pandemic but also of what they themselves went through until their two children were born. But the mother says they may change their minds later.

Preeti Verma:

I faced many difficulties with my husband. Police stopped us several times along the way due to traffic restrictions. I meanwhile had pain and had to endure until I arrived at the hospital and was born. The nurses started calling the children Covid and Corona, so we decided to give them that name.

The twins were born in the early hours of March 27. They are healthy and thankfully without coronavirus.
