BHOPAL: The oxygen shortage in Madhya Pradesh is turning more and more grim, leading to deaths of many patients. Earlier, several Covid patients died in Jabalpur and now, Covid patients have died in Gwalior.
In both cases, Covid patients have died during shifting of oxygen cylinders from high-flow oxygen. Patients were on high-flow oxygen and, when they are shifted, the high flow of oxygen could not be maintained.
Both the cities faced the brunt of the shortage in oxygen supply. The administration still claims that it is providing oxygen supply to hospitals, but the ground reality is different. In both the cities, police teams worked throughout the night to restore the oxygen supply.
According to Bhopalís private hospital doctors, the oxygen condition in Madhya Pradesh is the worst and is leading to many deaths. Private hospitals have stopped admitting Covid patients because of the oxygen crisis. The situation is more or less the same across all cities of Madhya Pradesh. There is no improvement on the oxygen front.
