Paediatric wards, ICUs, being in 48 hospitals over the next three days
Health Minister Veena George has directed that as part of the preparation for a possible third wave of COVID, at least 60% of the paediatric wards and ICUs being planned in all 48 hospitals be readied in the next three months. A total of 744 paediatric beds, including 490 oxygen beds, 158 high-dependency unit beds, and 96 ICU beds are being readied across districts, in anticipation that paediatric cases of COVID-19 may spike if a third wave of COVID strikes.More Related News
