Bengaluru: Acute lack of oxygen beds leaves even VVIPs, ministers gas

班加罗尔：严重缺乏带氧气设备的床位，连VVIP和部长们都受影响

BENGALURU: Amid the surge in Covid cases, finding a hospital bed with oxygen facility is turning out to be near impossible in Bengaluru, one the most advanced districts in terms of medical facilities.

班加罗尔：新冠病例激增，在医疗设施最先进的地区之一班加罗尔，在医院几乎找不到带氧气设备的床位

And it’s not just ordinary people who face this problem; it’s a challenge even for VVIPs including ministers, bureaucrats, celebrities and healthcare professionals themselves. Many corporate hospitals and almost all private hospitals with oxygenated beds have displayed notices announcing, ‘no beds, limited oxygen’.

不仅仅是普通人面临这个问题，这对包括部长、官僚、名人和医疗专业人员在内的VVIP来说也是一个挑战。许多公立医院和几乎所有配备氧气设备床位的私立医院都张贴了“无床位，氧气有限”的告示。

The chief minister’s office and offices of the health minister and other senior ministers are bombarded with SOS messages and calls every day from VVIPs, pleading for oxygenated beds. They all end up disappointed, sources say.

首席部长办公室、卫生部长办公室和其他高级部长的办公室每天都受到来自VVIP的求救信息和电话的轰炸，他们要求提供带氧气设备的床位。消息人士称，他们最终都失望了。

Recently, former chief minister HD Kumaraswamy, who contracted the infection, tried — unsuccessfully at that — for a bed in Manipal hospital and eventually managed to secure one in Apollo hospital.

最近，前首席部长HD Kumaraswamy感染新冠，他试图在曼尼帕尔医院找床位，但没有成功，最终在阿波罗医院获得了一张床位。

A senior minister in Yediyurappa’s cabinet reportedly had a difficult time getting a bed with oxygen facility for one of his close relatives, who had difficulty in breathing. “I had to buy an oxygen cylinder and get him treated at home as no private hospital was ready to admit him due to uncertainty of oxygen supply. Eventually we shifted him to a hospital in Mysuru,” the minister said.

据报道，Yediyurappa内阁一名高级部长的一位近亲呼吸困难，难以获得带氧气设备的床。“由于氧气供应的不确定性，没有一家私人医院愿意接收他，所以我不得不买了一个氧气瓶在家治疗。最后我们把他转移到了迈苏鲁的一家医院。”
