The Hindu
‘Will re-examine cases if any complaints are received’
The State government has nothing to hide as far as COVID deaths are concerned and if any ex gratia aid is being offered for families who lost their dear ones to the pandemic, the government will do its best to secure it for them, Health Minister Veena George said here on Thursday. She reiterated that the State was classifying deaths as COVID deaths based on ICMR/WHO guidelines and that the new online reporting system captures COVID deaths happening in hospitals real-time. Ms. George said the government had not received any complaints so far regarding the non-inclusion of any COVID deaths and if in case any death had been left out from the list, the government was willing to re-examine it.
