TWINS WERE NAMED CORONA AND COVID
It was five years ago this week, as the pandemic was really just beginning, that we heard the news of a newborn boy and girl in India were named Covid and Corona. The parents, Preeti and Vinay Verma, said they hoped the twins’ names would serve as a reminder of the hardships they overcame as they were brought into the world during the pandemic. The couple (from Raipur) said at the time that they might change their minds later and rename the children.
