Small private hospitals that are into COVID-19 treatment in Coimbatore have raised concern over an imminent shortage in the supply of liquid medical oxygen. Sources in some of the small private hospitals here say they are witnessing delay in the supply and decline in the quantity of medical oxygen from manufacturers, unlike previous times of the pandemic. They say that diversion of liquid medical oxygen produced at a plant in Palakkad district, Kerala, to other parts of the country is one of the reasons for the current situation. Several hospitals in the city are buying medical oxygen from this plant, they add.More Related News
