KCR Government Gears Up To Tackle Covid Surge!
Telangana government declared that the healthcare machinery is geared up to meet any kind of emergency situation in case the Covid infections surge again.
Despite no signs of an increase in Covid positive cases in India, people should take precautions, be vigilant, and get booster shots instead of panicking.
Health Minister, T Harish Rao said the samples from international passengers would be collected and sent to the laboratory at Gandhi Hospital for genome sequencing.
Telangana's health department was directed to intensify preparations in case of an outbreak of Covid infection.
“During the past three Covid waves, we created adequate medical infrastructure to meet all kinds of emergencies. However, there is a need to be prepared beforehand. Manpower resources, availability of drugs, medical oxygen supply and ICU beds will be made ready and available in the next few weeks,” he said.
Senior health officials briefed health ministers on the current situation of Covid infections in China. As a large segment of the Indian population has already developed immunity to the Omicron variants of SARS-CoV-2 due to extensive vaccination and natural infection, there is no need to panic at the moment.
