As COVID-19 numbers surge, the government and hospitals have maintained that hospitalisation remains substantially lower than during the second wave, when there was a mad scramble for beds and oxygen. In the third wave being driven by the Omicron variant, the impact of infections has been relatively mild, with many choosing to get treated at home. This has resulted in a surge in demand for home healthcare services in the city.
The market is flush with many such packages, some big hospital chains even terming them Omicron care packages.
