India records world’s biggest single-day rise in coronavirus cases
Change language:
India marked a grim milestone in the COVID-19 pandemic on Thursday, reporting 314,835 new daily cases, the highest one-day tally anywhere, as its second wave and similar surges elsewhere raised new fears about the ability of health services to cope.
Hospitals across northern and western India including the capital, New Delhi, have issued notices to say they have only a few hours of medical oxygen required to keep COVID-19 patients alive.
More than two-thirds of hospitals had no vacant beds, according to the Delhi government’s online data base and doctors advised patients to stay at home.
“The situation is very critical,” Dr Kirit Gadhvi, president of the Medical Association in the western city of Ahmedabad, told Reuters.
“Patients are struggling to get beds in COVID-19 hospitals. There is especially acute shortage of oxygen.”
Krutika Kuppalli, assistant professor at the Division of Infectious Diseases, Medical University of South Carolina in the United States, said on Twitter the crisis was leading to a collapse of the healthcare system.
The previous record one-day rise in cases was held by the United States, which had 297,430 new cases on one day in January, though its tally has since fallen sharply.
India’s total cases are now at 15.93 million, while deaths rose by 2,104 to reach a total of 184,657, according to the latest health ministry data.
Television showed images of people with empty oxygencylinders crowding refilling facilities in the most populousstate of Uttar Pradesh as they scrambled to save relatives in hospital.
“We never thought a second wave would hit us so hard,” Kiran Mazumdar Shaw, the executive chairman of Biocon & Biocon Biologics, an Indian healthcare firm, wrote in the Economic Times.
“Complacency led to unanticipated shortages of medicines, medical supplies and hospital beds.”
Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain said there was a crisis over the shortage of intensive care unit beds, with the city needing about 5,000 more than it could find. Some hospitals had enough oxygen to last 10 hours, others just six.
The GOI wants its people to die asap – as that is the ONLY way, to reduce the burden on the Hospital infra,and the Drugs supply chain
The GOI has found 1 ingenious tool – Oxygen supplies.There is insufficient supply, insufficient cylinders and insufficient truckers,Besides,no state wants to supply O2,as it fears a backlash, from its population
This ensures a minimum lead time of 19-15 days from loading the cylinders to the 1st breath in the patient in the hospital.A person on a Vent on Day 1 , WLL SURELY
DIE, BY DAY 10 !
And that is the plan !
The IDEA is to make the Hospitals,Docs and Patients,GET A REALITY CHECK, keep their EXPECTATIONS VERY LOW,and make them INNURED TO SHOCK !
Very soon, states will NOT return O2 cylinders,and will DEMAND A SWAP FOR FILLED 02 CYLINDERS !
The GOI could just AIRFREIGHT THE O2 AND EMPTY CYLINDERS AND REDUCE THE TRANSIT TIME ON BOTH LEGS TO ZERO – BUT IT WON’T – AS IT WANTS PEOPLE TO DIE AND THE HOSPITALS TO NOT GET TOO DEMANDING !
BUT THERE IS 1 MORE REASON – THE GOI IS IMPORTING 50000 TONS OF O2 – WHICH WILL BE SCAM – AND SO,THEY HAVE TO MAKE A STORY TO JUSTIFY THE IMPORTS !
OF COURSE A FEW MONTHS AGO,THE GOI EXPORTED 10000 TONS OF O2 – AT THAT TIME – THEY DID NOT HAVE THE SENSE TO DO A LOAN OR BARTER AND NOT A SALE !
DISASTER LIES AHEAD ! dindooohindoo !
At least 80% of the Indians on VENTS will be dead in 10 days !
