15 more Covid-19 patients die at Goa hospital as oxygen level dips again

Fifteen Covid-19 patients have allegedly died at the state-run Goa Medical College and Hospital place due to "logistical issues" related to connecting oxygen cylinders.

Fifteen Covid-19 patients died at state-run Goa Medical College and Hospital allegedly due to a dip in oxygen levels early on Thursday. The development comes just two days after 26 Covid-19 patients died at the same facility. Taking note of the deaths, the Goa bench of the Bombay High Court said it was informed by the state authorities that some of the casualties might have taken place due to "logistical issues" related to connecting oxygen cylinders, resulting in interruption and drop in pressure in the central pipeline.
