With the third wave declining in the State, Karnataka’s COVID-19 Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) has recommended that henceforth, all hospitals — both government and private — should provide COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 services on a daily and continual basis.

“The third wave of COVID is on the decline in Karnataka. However, there is no certainty that the pandemic is likely to end soon. Hence, to ensure that patients are not put to hardship, TAC after due deliberations recommends that all hospitals in the State, both government and private, should henceforth make arrangements to provide both COVID and non–COVID services on a daily and continual basis,” stated the TAC’s 154th meeting report.
