Doctors there said she needed an ICU and had a good chance of survival. A family friend told me that the hospital was planning to discharge her on Sunday as it was running out of oxygen.
Oxygen-equipped ambulances are in short supply and it's becoming difficult for families to transport patients to hospitals even if they find a bed.at the Jaipur Golden Hospital in Delhi because of a lack of oxygen. Hospitals are sending SOS messages frantically every day, saying they have just a few hours of oxygen left.
That's how Delhi is functioning at the moment. Friends are calling friends; social media is awash with desperate pleas for help. Some people I know are taking dangerous journeys with their critically ill relatives to other cities which are 300-500km away. Sivesh Rana's brother was in a critical condition but he couldn't find a bed in Delhi and decided to take him in an ambulance to a city in the neighbouring state of Haryana.
"You need high-pressure liquid oxygen for the smooth functioning of ventilators and bi-pap machines. When the pressure drops, the machines fail to deliver adequate oxygen into the lungs, and the consequences can be fatal," he says.
Delhi is a very small part of 'India' & covid surge isnt affecting 'All' Indian states the same... Ppl seem quick to jump n blame the Indian govt & forget that State govts govern the states n play the big part in controlling the pandemic- stop mass gatherings, enforce masks etc
It is a blessing in disguise, as India is way to over-populated.
Is this made worse by the pollution levels in India? Many thousands die each year because of it?
All my hope to India
We KNOW. This is your umpteenth story on this. Why don't you report on the US export ban on raw materials preventing India ramping up vaccines or the HUGE stockpile of AZ the US are sitting on which they could give/sell to India to help?
This is awful
😢😢😢😢prayers 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Should Britain help? Instead of every day covering other people’s disasters like a joke
Maybe they should ask for some help
Maybe they should scrap their space program and use the cash for their medical infrastructure? RachAM
