Osmania General Hospital refutes Covid-related fatality. Currently, 3 Covid-positive patients are under treatment in the isolation ward.
Amidst rumours of a Covid-related fatality at government-run Osmania General Hospital on Tuesday, hospital authorities have refuted such claims.
Dr. B. Nagendar, the hospital superintendent, while speaking to The Hindu, said, “There is no recorded Covid-related death at our hospital. Currently, the hospital is treating three Covid-positive patients, all of whom are in stable condition and have been placed in the isolation ward.”
Dr. Nagendar went on to recount an incident from a few days prior when a patient, initially admitted for Intracranial Bleeding linked to a cardiac condition, was later discovered to be COVID-19 positive after death.
In anticipation of potential Covid cases, the hospital has established a five-bed isolation ward equipped with essential amenities, including ICU. The superintendent assured that the hospital is well-prepared with an ample supply of ventilators, oxygen, RT-PCR kits, and necessary medications to address the ongoing pandemic situation.

After mandating pet dog licensing and microchipping, Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) bids to do the same for cattle to curb stray cattle issues and man-animal conflicts in the streets. The civic body has moved to make it compulsory for cattle owners to obtain licenses for their animals across all zones.
