The man was admitted to the Sharda Hospital, a dedicated Covid-19 facility, in Greater Noida where he died on Monday night, they said.

“Total 57 reports have been received in the last 24 hours, of which six were positive and the rest negative for Covid-19. The number of confirmed cases in Gautam Buddh Nagar now stands at 230,” Dohare said.

“So far, 141 of the 230 patients have been cured and discharged, leaving 86 active cases in the district,” he added.
