Congress MP Rajiv Satav died at a private hospitalin Pune on Sunday, days after recovering from coronavirus infection. The 46-year-old leader was on ventilator support at the hospital after his health deteriorated. Satav had tested positive for Covid-19 earlier on April 22. He was later diagnosed with a new viral infection called Cytomegalovirus and was in a critical condition. "Satav's Covid test had come negative around four days back after suffering from it for almost 20 days. However his lungs were heavily infected," said Maharashtra minister Vishwajeet Kadam.Cytomegalovirus is a common herpes virus. The virus, which remains dormant in the body, can cause complications during pregnancy and for people with a weakened immune system. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi expresses his condolence.
I’m very sad at the loss of my friend Rajeev Satav. He was a leader with huge potential who embodied the ideals of the Congress.
