Delhi govt to review ICU beds’ shortage in Covid hospitals : State Health Minister

Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain on Tuesday said that the department will review the surge of Covid-19 cases in the national Capital and the availability of Intensive Care Units beds, especially for Coronavirus infected patients.

“We will review the COVID-19 situation and other issues today. Shortage of beds came from one or two private hospitals and that situation will be corrected,” he said.

According to the application, 31.8 per cent of the ICU beds with ventilators are occupied across the city, while 27 per cent of ICU beds without ventilators are filled. While the good thing is only 25 per cent of normal Covid-19 beds are in use.
