India ace tennis player Sania Mirza on Tuesday confirmed that she had tested positive for Covid-19 earlier this month and has now recovered. The 34-year-old tennis player released a note in this regard and said that she was asymptomatic. 

The tennis player also stated that staying in isolation was extremely difficult, especially staying away from her two-year-old son. She also pondered about the difficulties the people admitted in hospitals  are going through due to the novel coronavirus.
