After a 47-year-old man flew to India to adopt a girl, it was revealed that the man had contracted COVID-19 and is expected to be flown back on Wednesday. It is unknown if the man will be accompanied by his wife and daughter as he will be transported via an air ambulance to avoid spreading the virus. His wife also contracted the virus, with the status of the girl currently unknown.

The couple had travelled to India before the situation got worse, with oxygen supply dropping significantly and a variant totalling the number of cases and deaths daily. The man is currently recovering in a hospital outside New Delhi, but the Maltese High Commissioner for India Reuben Gauci could not provide further details due to confidentiality.
