The number of patients in hospitals is increasing due to the rapid spread of the corona virus. Therefore, there is a severe shortage of beds. Many private hospitals refuse to admit new patients. The lack of beds in most government hospitals is a major complication.
In this context, the death of 3 patients due to non-availability of beds at Tirupur Government General Hospital is a big shock. The hospital has 252 beds. They all seem to overflow. As a result, patients have to wait in ambulances with oxygen cylinders on the hospital premises.
As the number of patients is increasing day by day, new arrivals are being admitted late. Three patients died this morning due to unavailability of beds. Relatives of the patients reported this.
