AHMEDABAD: In the beginning of May last year, when the city was recording daily cases in the range of 5,000-6,000 similar to the current range, the hospitals were brimming with the patients.
The Civil Hospital witnessed major queues outside and the private hospitals had to set up a system so that the patients don’t die on the road while waiting for a bed — the reason was apparent, about 90% of the available beds were full.
