India removes import duty on remdesivir until October The second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic has posed a serious health crisis as patients are faced with an acute shortage of oxygen beds, ICU and Remdesivir drug. Amidst such a crisis, shocking incidents of fake Remdesivir drugs, trade of the anti-viral drug in the black market for exorbitant prices have come to the fore. Another such incident of Remdesivir black marketing was busted in Bengaluru. A private hospital in South Bengaluru, ACE Suhas' name popped up in the Remdesivir black marketing. A certain fraction of local media and local police have blatantly named the hospital of the wrongdoing when investigations have revealed that one of the hospital employees and a visiting consultant acted unilaterally in the illicit act. The hospital has made its stand clear and even welcomed a thorough probe into the matter, but urged against jumping to early conclusions based on mere suspicions.
