Known yoga guru, Baba Ramdev, claims that he has a short way of testing if someone is positive of coronavirus or not. Baba Ramdev claims that if you can hold your breath for a minute, you don’t have coronavirus.

“There is a special pranayama for coronavirus. It is called Ujjai. In it you contract your throat, then pump in air with a noise, hold it for a while and then gradually release it,” he had said.
He further added that people who have health issues like hypotension, diabetes or even the elderly can test by holding their breath up to 30 seconds. The young, however, need to hold their breath for 1 minute to test themselves.
