Usman’s health started deteriorating the next day. Blood pressure fell to Zero and his body turned blue and black. He was then rushed to a hospital and had to be kept on the ventilator for two weeks.

Paediatrician Nitin Kumar said that Usman had low blood pressure when he had arrived at the hospital. An X-Ray revealed that his lungs were heavily damaged.
