The Dakshina Odisha Unnayan Parishad on Sunday requested the State Government to establish a plasma therapy unit at the MKCG Medical College Hospital here to provide plasma treatment to Covid patients in the south region.
“The State Government has decided to set up four plasma therapy units at the SCB Medical College and Hospital and Ashwini Hospital in Cuttack and SUM and KIMS Hospital in Bhubaneswar while Ganjam needs it the most as it has the highest number of Covid positive cases,” said Parishad convenor Rabi Rath.
He demanded that the Government set up such a unit at the MKCG Hospital in the very first phase as corona cases are on the rise at all levels in the district.
