Some materials of corona hospitals in Dang are being used regularly, while some materials are not being used. Corona Special Hospital located in Belzhundi is currently storing some materials of Corona Unit of Rapti Provincial Hospital.
According to Sushma Wali, the in-charge of the corona unit, the hospital's ventilator, which was running during the corona epidemic, is now at a standstill. Patients with asthma are being treated in the ICU. Corona isolation is currently operating as a high security cell. "The ventilator is not working", he said, "The ICU room is running regularly."
At Rapti Institute of Health Sciences, swabs from outside the district were also tested for PCR. The testing machine is still running. According to the information officer of the hospital, Nishandaju Bhattarai, PCR tests have been conducted for those who go for foreign employment, patients, and those who go from one place to another. He said that seven to eight people are subjected to swab tests like this every day. Information officer Bhattarai says that ICU and other materials are being used regularly.
Isolation of metro hospital, which was put into operation by Tulsipur sub-metropolitan city, is mostly unused now. A 40-bed isolation center was brought into operation at Metro Hospital. But that center seems deserted now. The ICU beds in the isolation center are empty.
Sometimes, when asthma patients come, they are given oxygen and kept in the isolation center, but most of the time they have to be kept under lock and key, said Romhers KC, head of the hospital's store. "Sometimes patients with asthma come, they are kept and treated", he said, "otherwise it is like deserted". Corona isolation was constructed in Dangma Institute, Belzhundi Hospital and Metro Hospital of Tulsipur sub-metropolitan city.
