The 50-year-old was sent to Dhaka and admitted to the isolation ward at Dhaka Medical College Hospital this morning, said Shakhipur Upazila Nirbahi Officer Asmaul Husna Liza. 

The woman said her family left her in the forest around 8:00pm yesterday, but they assured her they would come back for her. 

When they did not return, she cried for help, which led to the eventual rescue. The UNO went to the spot as well to rescue the woman and said she was suffering from fever, breathing problems and sore throat.
