Dr Nibedita contracted Covid-19 virus two months ago. After recovering from Covid-19, she rejoined her workplace.
However, a few days ago, she was first admitted to Monowara Hospital with post Covid symptoms. She was later admitted to BRB Hospital after suffering from various physical complications including anemia.
She died on Friday while undergoing treatment there. She was 39 years old.
She joined the Metropolitan Children's Hospital under Dhaka South City Corporation in 2014 as a medical officer. In 2017, she was appointed at Nazira Bazaar Maternity Center in the same post.
