Ambulances not responding on time, charging double of what they used to
Ambulance drivers in the State capital are stressed for COVID-19 related emergencies now, as there are only about 500 private medical vehicles and the requirement keeps going up.
On the one hand, there are complaints that ambulances are not responding on time for emergencies, and on the other, the ambulance drivers are unable to attend the family members of patients managing to get admission at hospitals due to lack of beds.
