Shimla, April 24
Covid claimed the lives of 26 persons, including two children, in Himachal Pradesh. A five-year-old died in Kangra and a 10-year-old in Hamirpur. “We did not see children dying in the first wave. Only the aged and those with co-morbidities were at high risk,” observed Dr Malay Sarkar, clinical in-charge, Covid-19.
Meanwhile, Deen Dayal Upadhyaya (DDU) Hospital here has run out of beds. “We now have 91 patients. We have arranged for a few more beds,” a doctor said. Although the IGMC portal showed it had five vacant beds, sources claimed the hospital was refusing fresh admissions. — TNS
