Madhubani (Bihar) [India], May 24 (ANI): The second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the stressed and almost non-functional healthcare system in rural Bihar with unsanitary conditions, lack of medical equipment and missing medical staff becoming the norm at many hospitals.
The government health centre in Sukki village in Madhubani s Khajauli has become a shelter for stray animals. The ruined structure accommodating cattle used to be the second-largest hospital in Bihar s Madhubani. However, it is now lying dysfunctional in the midst of the pandemic. There are many things lying all around that give a reminder that the ruined building once housed a hospital.
