Hon’ble Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan earlier announced that she would have a discussion with Chief secretary and principal health secretary of Telangana state to discuss regarding present covid-19 situation prevailing across the state.
The governor held a video conference to interact with Private Hospitals of Covid-19 Isolation Centers. Currently Soundararajan is following up with hospitals that include – Care Hospitals KIMS, Hospital Basavatarakam Indo-American Cancer Hospital Sunshine Hospitals, Kamineni Academy of Medical Science, Virinchi Hospitals, Global hospitals, Apollo, Malla Reddy Narayana and Continental hospitals.
The governor is going to address issues regarding covid-19 treatment, the diagnostic tests, beds and bills generated by the hospitals after analysing the pathetic situation, as complained by the Telanagana citizens.
Many people who have suspected covid-19, themselves gave their blood samples to the hospitals. But there was public furore that patients are being ill treated. Few of the covid-19 suspects complain that they haven’t got the test results despite passing 4-5 days. The current covid-19 situation even more worsened when government hospitals disregarded many patients mainly effecting the poor, who relied on such hospitals.
The governor’s announcement on Twitter gave a relief to some netizens and responded by requesting the governor to look into the issue and resolve it as early as possible. While majority of twitteratis complained to provide daily status of beds similar to covid-19 cases updates.
