Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], Feb 5 (ANI): As the coronavirus crisis continues to spread across the world, as many as 11,093 people have been screened at the Mumbai International Airport till February 3.
Out of those who were screened, 107 of them belonged to Maharashtra, including 21 who showed symptoms similar to Coronavirus.
