The Hindu
The district is in need of 58 kl to cater to the demand with the number of oxygen beds increased to 3,500
Mysuru is yet to get the quota of medical oxygen it sought from the State government for dealing with the prevailing COVID-19 situation in the district though the allocation had been increased from 41 kl to 48 kl. The district’s oxygen quota was fixed at 41 kl though 58 kl was demanded to cater to the demand with a large number of COVID-19 patients in need of life support. Mysuru MP Pratap Simha, who is also the Chairman of the Mysuru Oxygen Task Force, said he had urged Manish Moudgil, who is the State-level nodal officer for oxygen distribution, for immediate increase of the quota that the district had sought since 41 kl was insufficient in the current situation.
