BENGALURU/DODDABALLAPUR, Karnataka â The American India Foundation with support from Goldman Sachs and Lenovo India launched the first 70-bed mobile hospital in Mother & Child Hospital, Doddaballapur, Bengaluru, Karnataka.
The facility has been installed by AIF as part of the philanthropic efforts of GS and Lenovo India towards COVID care. The second wave, starting April 2021, was much more severe and challenged the public health system with extreme shortage of oxygen supplies resulting in unprecedented number of morbidities. To ensure future preparedness, there emerged a great need for augmentation of the healthcare system including hospital beds equipped with ventilators, oxygen concentrators and other medical supplies to meet the current and future crises of this nature.
