Deputy Commissioner of Mysuru Rohini Sindhuri on Monday said the supply of Remdesivir, being used in the treatment of COVID-19, will improve by May 1. On a Facebook Live, Ms. Sindhuri, however, added that there was no shortage of Remdesivir in government hospitals in urban and taluk centres. However, more than 100 private hospitals, which had not been registered with Suvarna Arogya Suraksha Trust (SAST), a separate entity under the Department of Health and Family Welfare, were not receiving Remdesivir from the government. “Only 35 out of the 140 private hospitals in the district were registered with SAST portal. Only private hospitals registered with SAST are given the medicine,” she said.More Related News
