Seven coronavirus patients died on Saturday after
a medical oxygen outage at the main government hospital in the Jordanian city of Al Salt.
The deaths prompted health minister Nazir Obeidat to resign. Prime Minister Bisher Al Khasawneh said Mr Obeidat, a professor of medicine, was fired.
Interior minister Mazen Faraya was later appointed by Royal Decree to run the health ministry, the Jordan News Agency reported.
Mr Obeidat said there had been a delay of an hour
in refilling
oxygen tanks at the hospital. Between 6am and 7am, an oxygen shortage occurred. Oxygen levels in the tanks went down, he told reporters at the hospital.
