Hisar hospitals are flooded with queries for admission, ICU beds and ventilators from Covid patients in Delhi, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and the National Capital Region, including Gurugram and Noida.
Sources said out of around 1,000 Covid patients admitted to 31 hospitals in Hisar, around 350 (35 per cent) are from outside Haryana. Hisar hospitals are also getting patients from adjoining districts of Jind, Fatehabad, Sirsa and Bhiwani. One of the hospitals here has 20 patients from Delhi.
Sources say some of the hospitals are admitting patients beyond their capacity. “The death of five patients at a private hospital yesterday is a case in point. Among the deceased patients, one was from Mansa (Punjab) and another from Delhi. The hospital did not have adequate oxygen cylinders to deal with the emergency situation, leading to a tragedy,” said a hospital official.
HISAR: Five Covid-19 patients on ventilator support died at a private hospital here on Monday morning, allegedly after their oxygen supply ran out. This incident happened within 24 hours of two similar incidents in Haryana.
