Surgeries at Nawaloka and Asiri hospitals stop due to shortage of drugs?

Date:

Many surgeries at Nawaloka and Asiri private hospitals have reportedly had to be canceled.

This is due to the shortage of anesthetics available.

This has created a serious crisis and as a result, the lives of the patients are in grave danger and the patients are now questioning whether the government is taking revenge on the people in response to the protests against the government.

The entire process is going awry as there is no Minister in charge of the subject at present and the Government Medical Officers’ Association also staged a protest in front of the Ministry of Health yesterday demanding the government to immediately address the shortage of drugs.
