Mumbai:
Seven deaths in a single day at a hospital in Palghar district sparked anger among relatives over alleged short supply of oxygen cylinders and administrative failure amid the prevailing Kovid-19 crisis in Maharashtra. The fatalities – all reported from the intensive care unit – could be a sign of a severe crisis to the Vasai-Virar Municipal Corporation, under whose jurisdiction Nala Sopara Hospital is. However, officials at the tertiary care center have stated that the patients were already in critical condition at the time of admission.
