SAD asks Punjab govt to improve Critical Care Centres to reduce fatality rates

Chandigarh, Sep 3 (UNI) The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) on Thursday asked the Congress government in Punjab to get its act together and improve infrastructure and medical facilities at its Critical Care Centres instead of trying to forsake its responsibility by blaming the people for reporting late to hospitals.
The party maintained that the latest fatality figures indicated that the health system had virtually collapsed in Punjab, SAD leader Dr Daljit singh Cheema said in a statement here.
He said it was shocking that 106 COVID fatalities had been reported in Punjab Wednesday and that the State’s fatality per centage of 2.6 was the third highest in the country. “The very fact that the fatality rate is increasing instead of decreasing as is the case with all other States indicates that the State is failing to provide the required medical care to pandemic patients”.
