“Two more people who had returned to Meghalaya from Goa and Maharashtra have tested positive for COVID19. Both of them are under quarantine in Shillong, East Khasi Hills District and are healthy,” Sangma tweeted.

Of the 33 cases, 19 are active while 13 persons have recovered and one patient has died of the disease, he added.
