In India a woman gave birth to beautiful twins, a boy and a girl. The new parents named their new bundles of joy: 'Covid' and 'Corona.'
The husband and wife said the names are to symbolize a "triumph over hardships."
Mother of the twins, Preeti Verma, told the Press Trust of India:
I was blessed with the twins — a boy and a girl — in the early hours on March 27. We have named them Covid and Corona for now.
