The Pandemic
A system designed to prevent Covid-19 patients running from hospital to hospital for a bed has led to problems of its own in Bengaluru. After the Karnataka government forbade labs from conveying positive results of Covid tests to individuals concerned directly, ambulances, often carrying multiple people, are waiting for hours outside hospitals as the latter demand paperwork regarding tests, which is not being made available to patients.
Private laboratories have kick-started antibody testing for anyone who wants to undergo the same, with most requests coming from the private sector — people attached to salons, film industry, private hospitals, and industrial and corporate offices.
With the number of Covid-19 cases continuing to rise in Telangana, the High Court on criticised the government for “behaving in a manner that is violating the right to live”. By not declaring the required information regarding the spread of Covid-19, including information on where containment zones are, the state is endangering the lives of citizens, it said.
