Images of a woman giving cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to her husband in an auto and an officer shouting at frantic relatives fighting for Oxygen have gone viral in the nationwide Covid crisis. Both the incidents are from Agra in Uttar Pradesh. In one set of visuals, a woman, Renu Singhal, is seen with her husband, who is Covid positive and looks to be on the verge of collapse. As the man, Ravi Singhal, started gasping for breath, she was seen trying to resuscitate him. The attempts ended tragically as Ravi Singhal died on his wife's lap in the auto that parked right outside a hospital. He was declared dead at SN Medical College hospital in the city. In another incident, relatives of a patient are seen protesting and screaming for oxygen cylinders outside the gates of a hospital. A senior official is heard shouting back at them. One video that went viral showed an officer, Preeti Jain, stopping people from picking up oxygen cylinders from a plant in Tedi Bagia in the city.
