As many as 24 patients, including some Covid-19 positive, died at a hospital in Karnataka allegedly due to the shortage of oxygen. The incident took place at a district hospital in Chamarajanagar where at least 144 patients are being treated. The district officials have, however, denied the allegations that all the patients died due to oxygen shortage at the hospital.
A pall of gloom descended on the Chamarajanagar district hospital as the grieving kin of the deceased gathered after hearing the news. Family members of the dead also staged a demonstration at the hospital and alleged there was a shortage of oxygen and raised slogans.
