Karnataka: 24 Covid patients die at Chamarajnagar hospital due to oxygen shortage

卡纳塔克邦：24名新冠患者因缺氧在Chamarajnagar医院死亡

BENGALURU: The oxygen crisis took a heavy toll when 24 Covid patients died in Chamarajnagar, 175km away from Bengaluru, after the government district hospital ran out of oxygen supply on Sunday midnight.

班加罗尔：周日午夜，在距离班加罗尔175公里的Chamarajnagar，公立地区医院氧气供应耗尽，24名新冠患者死亡，氧气危机造成了严重后果。

The Yediyurappa government has convened an emergency meeting to probe what led to the terrible tragedy, where patients died on their hospital beds after the oxygen supplies to them ended at around 11.45pm.

Yediyurappa 政府已召开紧急会议，调查造成这场可怕悲剧的原因。晚上11点45分左右，供氧终止后，病人死在了医院的病床上。

Preliminary investigations revealed that the oxygen supply to the district hospital had not reached in time from Mysuru, where the oxygen distribution network had been established.

初步调查显示，Mysuru的氧气供应未能及时送到地区医院，那里已经建立了氧气分配网络。

"Died or Killed? My heartfelt condolences to their families. How much more suffering before the ‘system’ wakes up?'" tweeted Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

国大党领袖拉胡尔·甘地在推特上写道：“死亡还是被杀?向他们的家人表示衷心的慰问。在“系统”苏醒之前还要承受多少痛苦?”

Chamarajnagar deputy commissioner Dr M R Ravi said the 24 people had died from Sunday morning to Monday morning.

Chamarajnagar副局长M R Ravi博士说，从周日早上到周一早上，已有24人死亡。

“We cannot say that all have died because of oxygen shortage. As per doctors’ report, 12 have died due to lack of oxygen while the others have succumbed to various comorbidities and underlying medical conditions.”

“并非所有人都是因缺氧而死亡。根据医生的报告，12人死于缺氧，其他人死于各种并存疾病和潜在的疾病。”

District in-charge minister S Suresh Kumar said, "We have sought a death audit report and it is expected this afternoon, we will initiate action against those responsible for the deaths. In most cases, the patients have come at the last minute. We did not get the required oxygen supply on time from Mysuru."

地区主管部长S Suresh Kumar说，“我们已经要求提供死亡审计报告，预计今天下午，我们将对那些应对死亡负责的人采取行动。Mysuru的氧气供应没有及时送到。”

"An alert was sounded on Sunday evening to the district administration about the imminent danger when we realised that the hospital would soon run out of oxygen, but nothing was done to augment supplies on time," hospital staff said.

医院工作人员表示:“周日晚上，当我们意识到医院很快就会耗尽氧气时，我们向区政府发出了危险迫在眉睫的警报，但政府没有采取任何措施及时增加氧气供应。”

Until Indians don't hold PM accountable for this tragedy, this dance of death will keep going on in INDIA. BJP politicians now believe that they can do anything as they wish and there is no one to question them.
