Noida: The burnout after testing positive for Covid-19 moved a Noida-based dentist to allegedly commit suicide by jump off her balcony on the 14th-floor of her apartment.

The deceased has been identified as a 30-year-old dentist and she was tested positive for COVID-19 a few days ago. PTI reports that after she allegedly jumped off her balcony, she was rushed to a private hospital on Friday night where she was declared dead.
The incident was reported in a residential society in Sector 137, under Surajpur police station limits, a senior official said.

"The dentist was recently tested positive for coronavirus and had been staying in home isolation. Last night, she jumped off her apartment on the 14th floor of the building and died," Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police, Central Noida, Elamaran G said. According to her husband, the woman had a fever and was also experiencing difficulty in breathing for the past few days, police said.
The sudden death of a young medical professional has brought grief into the medical community. The incident is glaring proof of how COVID is affecting not only the physical condition but also the mental condition of people including healthcare workers.
Further legal proceedings are being carried out by the police, the additional DCP said. On Thursday night, a 51-year-old man undergoing treatment for COVID-19 had also ended his life by jumping from a hospital building in Noida. He was allegedly battling depression due to his health condition.

Last year a similar incident took place when a female doctor posted at Primary Health Center (PHC) in Deoria district had allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself in her room due to depression that followed after she was isolated for COVID treatment. She was in depression after she had to stay alone.
