Pandemic leads to improvement in health infrastructure
The Hindu
A year after the district began to first report cases of the COVID-19 infection among people who returned from other countries in March last year, infrastructural improvements and infection control measures are here to stay.
The Government Medical College Hospital (MCH) had, till recently, borne the brunt of the COVID patient load in the district, particularly in critical cases. But when the 300-bed hospital was stretched to capacity, facilities at other government health centres were gradually improved, till PVS Hospital, the Fort Kochi Taluk Hospital and now the Aluva District Hospital were turned into exclusive COVID-19 care centres.
