Occupancy rate in 14 COVID-19 Care Centres is around 18%
There now are a total of 14 COVID-19 Care Centres (CCCs) in the city. They have been set up by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), some in association with private hotels and companies, such as HAL and BOSCH. Of the 2,054 beds available, just around 18% beds are occupied. The Karnataka government has directed the BBMP to ensure that at least 10% of total beds in CCCs are oxygenated. These CCCs are for those who have tested positive for COVID-19, but have either mild symptoms or are asymptomatic, and do not have the wherewithal for home isolation. Home isolation requires a COVID-19 patient to be isolated in a separate room with an attached bathroom and toilet.
