New delhi date. 15 May 2021, Saturday

Oxygen has been on the rise in Delhi for some time now. In the midst of all this, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today said that from today we are starting the service of Oxygen Concentrator Bank in Delhi. It is very important for corona patients to get oxygen on time, if this happens, many lives will be saved.

Kejriwal said that if any corona patient undergoing treatment in home isolation needed oxygen, an oxygen concentrator would reach his home in just 2 hours. A bank of 200 oxygen concentrators will be started in every district of Delhi. Doctors will be in constant contact with those who will be given an oxygen concentrator. After the patient recovers, he will return this oxygen concentrator and sanitize it and give it to another patient.

People living in home isolation can order an oxygen concentrator by calling 1031. With this, Kejriwal said that 6500 cases of corona virus have been reported in Delhi today as against 8500 yesterday. The transition rate has also dropped from 12 per cent to 11 per cent. So yesterday 500 ICU beds were made and ready. Even before this 50 ICU beds were ready.

He said that within 15 days, 1000 new beds of Delhi ICU have been prepared, the full credit of which goes to the doctors and engineers. Greetings from the people of Delhi to all these people and thank them very much. "The back of the oxygen concentrator will be useful to the people and we will be able to prevent death," he said.
