To cater to the needs of COVID-19 patients, a permanent structure with 400 beds is to come up at the Government Erode Medical College Hospital (GEMCH) at Perundurai at ₹ 7.5 crore for which work commenced here on Tuesday. Currently, there are 550 beds at the hospital providing treatment only to COVID-19 patients. Since patients from other districts also arrive at the hospital, the beds with oxygen and ventilator support are fully occupied and with a spike in cases, the demand for beds is also going up.More Related News
