The district administration has roped in private hospitals to increase the bed strength to treat COVID-19 patients, as there is a surge in cases in need of secondary and tertiary care. Joint Director of Health P. Paramasivan told The Hindu on Thursday that the government tertiary care facilities were completely full, while the secondary care was filled with patients in semi-critical condition. “A number of cases with false negative reports, admitted to hospitals with breathing difficulty, later revealed COVID-19 infection during scan.” In its wake, the administration needs more beds to offload the number of cases from the government hospitals.More Related News
