After eight cases of coronavirus were confirmed in the Worli-Koliwada area of Mumbai, 36 high-risk contacts were traced and sent for testing. Areas, where these contacts stay, have been divided into four categories -- epicentre cluster, high-risk contacts, containment zone and buffer zone. A map of the same has been made.
