Coronavirus | U.P. hospitals struggling with oxygen supply

Repeated calls to Shahi Global Hospital and its owner Shiv Shankar Shahi went unanswered.
D.K. Rai, owner of New Shivay Hospital, which has non-COVID-19 patients, said his establishment was facing shortage of oxygen and was asking patients to look elsewhere. The hospital’s daily requirement of 20-40 cylinders had been gradually reduced to five, and since Friday evening they had not received any cylinders, he said.
The hospital has 25 patients, including 20 requiring oxygen support.
“After struggling through the night, when my resolve gave way, with folded hands I asked the patients’ kin to arrange something elsewhere," said Mr. Rai, adding that the hospital had only three oxygen cylinders running in line.
