Covid India cases Live Updates: Following the detection of a new Corona variant in various states, including Kerala, the Government Hospital at Doon Medical College in Uttarakhand has intensified its measures, including stricter arrangements in isolation wards.
Currently, the state boasts 5893 isolation beds with oxygen support and over 3100 skilled paramedical personnel ready for deployment.
Anurag Aggarwal, the Nodal Officer overseeing Covid-19 at Doon Medical College, reassured the public that there’s no cause for alarm based on the advisory received, advising against any panic.
“As per the latest advisory, we need not panic. The only requisite right now is to get tested as soon as you catch the flu. We will increase testing for the new variant and will also keep updating the number of patients on the portal,” he said.
“An oxygen ward of 20 beds has been prepared for Covid-19 and an ICU ward of 09 beds has also been reserved for Covid. The new variant is not very different from the previous variant but those suffering from cancer, sugar, kidney and heart were advised to be more careful with this variant,” Aggarwal added.
