The State health department has decided to open a new 100-bedded Covid ward in the Building of Hazaribag Medical College campus near Central jail.
This decision was taken by the department on the request of local MLA. The ward will be equipped with all amenities, which is needed for the Corona patients. The health department team was headed by Meenakshi Kumar Pandit.
After the visit of the team local MLA Manish Jaiswal told that the condition of Covid ward of Hazaribag Sadar hospital is very bad. No one looks after the patients, who have been admitted to the ward. Due to this condition the death rate in Hazaribag is going to increase.
He added he has visited and met with the health secretary and demanded a Covid ward in the newly constructed building of Hazaribag medical college. On this request the state secretary immediately sent the team for physical verification.
Jaiswal assured the team leader if any financial problem took place then MLA fund will be released for the Covid ward. He said that I am always trying to give the best medical facilities to the citizens of Hazaribag.
Principal of medical college Dr SK Singh objected for the Covid ward in the building of the medical college. The team had turned down the view of the principal.
The State headquartres has sent ten ventilators to the sadar hospital for Covid ward. How much the ventilators will be useful for the patients without technicians in the hospital. In the sadar hospital Covid ward more than 30 ventilators are not working without technicians.
