The 18-bed special COVID-19 isolation facility at JNPT (Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust) is empty with not a single case reported in more than one week and sanitisation of neighbouring villages preventing an outbreak in the area.

The JNPT takes care of almost 12 project-affected villages located near the port. Sources in the JNPT told mid-day, "Initially, a one-and-half-year-old asthmatic daughter of a CISF staffer deployed at JNPT, showed symptoms of Coronavirus. Soon, the staffer and his older son were home-quarantined."
