PNG hospital chief hopeful of return to full services soon

The chief executive officer of Papua New Guinea's main hospital says there are hopes of a return to full services before the end of the month
Port Moresby General Hospital has been struggling with a surge in Covid-19 cases in the capital which includes many health workers.
The hospital was forced to suspend some services in order to free up wards to accomodate the increased number of covid patients.
Dr Paki Molumi said the load at his hospital will soon ease after the recent opening of an additional covid field hospital at Taurama Aquatic Centre.
"Because if we don't open up service and return to normal, we are creating another co-morbidity for the patients. We have to continue to manage TB, malaria, half these diseases. We must continue providing that service.
