Beds to be allotted through war rooms set up at ward level
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) on Friday said its medical teams would be visiting the houses of symptomatic COVID-19 patients before allotting beds to them through ward-level war rooms. Each of the 24 civic zones will be allotted 10 medical teams and 10 ambulances.
The visits will be conducted from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. and those in need of help between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. can approach the jumbo Covid Care Centres. The decision was taken at a meeting of top BMC officials to discuss bed management amid the surge in COVID-19 cases.
