PMC had told the HC that ICU, ventilator beds were available
After the counsel for Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) assured the Bombay High Court on Wednesday that ICU and ventilator beds are available, the control room has denied it. A Division Bench of Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice G.S. Kulkarni was hearing a bunch of petitions on shortage of beds, oxygen, Remdesivir, crematoriums and others. The counsel for PMC told the court that Pune has done maximum testing in Maharashtra and the recovery rate of patients in Pune was 90%. He said, “We are independent about the generation of oxygen and by June end, all municipal hospitals will be self-reliant when it comes to oxygen. There are currently five ICU beds and ventilator beds vacant.”More Related News
