MP minister: State hospitals hold mock Covid drills to preempt pandemic alarm

Madhya Pradesh Medical Education Minister Vishvas Sarang on Monday said adequate arrangements were in place in hospitals of the state amid rising Covid-19 cases.
Mock drills were conducted at various hospitals in the state on Monday to review their preparedness as part of the nationwide exercise in the wake of a surge in the cases of coronavirus. In state capital Bhopal, a mock drill was conducted at the Hamidia Hospital in the presence of Sarang.
“Preparations regarding COVID-19 in the Hamidia Hospital are satisfactory. There is a well-planned arrangement for medicines, equipment, oxygen, ventilators, etc. Along with this, there is also availability of adequate numbers of beds,” Sarang said.
The state has the capacity to conduct more than 1.25 lakh tests for COVID-19 per day, he said, adding that continuous efforts are being made to further increase the capacity.
“The COVID-19 situation in Madhya Pradesh is completely under control. But still, we have to be alert and careful too. Keep following all the health-related guidelines like before,” he said.
