The government has a keen eye on rapidly growing cases of Covid-19. The government will formulate a strategy to deal with the challenges that will arise in relation to this epidemic. The government is constantly taking steps to prevent infection and for the proper and better treatment of the infected,” said Chief Minister Hemant Soren, during the inauguration of 250 beds in the newly constructed dedicated Covid Health Center in Koderma district and 20 oxygen pipeline in Government Covid Sadar Hospital online.
The CM said that the second wave of Corona is proving to be very dangerous. “It is hurting our body very fast. To prevent this infection, oxygen is needed more than medicines and earlier. In such a situation, the government is constantly taking steps in the direction of providing oxygen-rich beds or oxygen to the patients in the hospitals of the state. Maintaining normal and regular supply of oxygen in hospitals is a top priority of the government. The people do not have to worry about any kind of oxygen for the infected,” he added.
The CM said that people are unable to understand the magnitude of corona epidemic in rural areas due to lack of awareness. Because of this, the infection is spreading rapidly here. People are also dying from this infection, but they are not cremated under the Covid protocol. There is an urgent need to identify and isolate or treat the infected in rural areas, so that the spread of infection can be stopped. He asked the officials and public representatives to fulfill their responsibilities in this direction. Particularly, those who are dying, their families should have a Covid test in any case. This will allow the level of spread of infection to be known.
