KOLKATA: Responding to a sharp drop in Covid admissions over the last two-three weeks, two city private hospitals have formally shut down their Covid units for the first time since the pandemic struck in March, 2020. Another is set to follow from Monday.
Even though several hospitals had been left without any Covid patient following the ebb of the third wave last February, the Covid units remained untouched. Last month, several hospitals shrunk the units drastically as the current surge waned.
