CM for two-pronged strategy to combat COVID
Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has asked officials to equip all hospital beds in the State with oxygen supply and take steps to produce 600 tonnes of oxygen per day. “The entire system is in a pathetic and horrifying condition on account of COVID and black fungus. The State government is prepared to spend any amount and even borrow to meet the situation”, he said at an official meeting on Monday to discuss the COVID situation and lockdown in the State. He said everyone who turned up at primary health centres and other facilities for testing should be obliged and there be no ceiling on the number of tests conducted in a day. A two-pronged strategy to combat COVID -- continuing door-to-door survey for fever and stepping up testing to detect positive cases could be adopted.More Related News
