A 100-bed COVID-19 care facility started in a community health centre in Gautam Buddh Nagar s rural Jewar area on Thursday with support from local authorities and foreign aid, BJP leader and local MLA Dhirendra Singh said.
The conversion of the rural CHC into a dedicated COVID facility was approved by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath recently amid the ongoing deadly second wave of the coronavirus which has hit villages too. This COVID facility will be helpful for patients in rural areas, local Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) CEO Arunvir Singh said, and extended all possible support to it.

The Union Health Ministry has revised the national policy for admission of COVID patients to health care facilities making it not mandatory for the patients to carry a Covid positive test report.
According to the health ministry s revised guidelines, a suspect case (of COVID-19) shall be admitted to the suspect ward of CCC, DCHC or DHC as the case may be. No patient will be refused services on any count. This includes medications such as oxygen or essential drugs even if the patient belongs to a different city.
