The national capital is grappling with not only oxygen shortage for Covid patients admitted in over one hundred hospitals, but also with short supply of ICU beds including in some big Covid-19 dedicated hospitals.
According to Delhi Government`s Corona App, (last update at 2.48 p.m., Friday) out of 4,590 ICU beds available in all Delhi`s hospitals, only 25 are vacant. However, for relief to some extent, Delhi has over 2,000 beds out of 20,458 non-oxygen beds reserved for Covid infected patients.
