    Govt to open step-down Covid Care Centers at 4 locations

    The Delhi Government has decided to open step-down Covid Care Centers at 4 locations (Teerapath Bhawan, Sardar Patel Covid Care Centre, Commonwealth Games Village Akshardham, and IBIS Hotel).

    Save community journalism by paying Rs 500, 1,000 and more.

    “Step Down Covid Care Center is used when the patient’s health improves after keeping the patient in the hospital for a few days, then the patient does not require medical attention in the hospital. The patient is then sent to the step-down Covid Care Center where s/he is looked after by health care workers. Each Covid Care Center has a capacity of 100 to 500 patients,” said Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain.

    He said: “There are about 200 patients admitted in the hospital in Delhi, out of which 115 people have come positive at the airport and they have been kept in the hospital in isolation”. Out of these 200 patients, 102 are from Delhi (mostly returned to India from abroad) and the remaining 98 are from outside Delhi. Apart from this, in view of the third wave of corona, the Delhi Government has issued instructions to all its hospitals to keep stock of medicines ready for the next 3 months.”

    While assuring the people of Delhi, Jain said the Health Department is keeping a close watch on the situation in Delhi.

    The Delhi government is ready to take all possible steps if needed and all experts related to pandemic and health are in touch with the Delhi government and are cooperating with the government in every step related to health security, he said.

    The Delhi government is ready with all possible resources to control corona and we have enough oxygen, medicines and beds available in hospitals, he said.

    The Health Minister urged the people of Delhi to strictly follow the Covid protocol. He appealed to the people to wear masks and follow social distancing for safety in public places and said there is no need to panic with corona, as prevention is better than cure.

    The Omicron variant is a variant of the corona itself and the protocol for its treatment and prevention is also the same as before. Everyone should wear a mask and follow social distancing, he said.
