24 Maharashtra Covid Patients Dead As Tanker Leak Disrupts Oxygen Supply
"As per current information, 24 people have died due to the interrupted supply of oxygen at the Zakir Hussain municipal hospital" -District collector Suraj Mandhare told NDTV.
Twenty-four COVID-19 patients died in Maharashtra's Nashik today after an oxygen tanker leaked outside a hospital, disrupting supply to patients for around 30 minutes. Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope promised the government will look into the matter and conduct a thorough probe.
Visuals showed gas leaking from the tanker outside the hospital and dense white fumes covering the area rapidly.
Rajesh Tope Said:
As per the information available with us, patients who were on ventilators at the hospital in Nashik have died. The leakage was spotted at the oxygen tank which was supplying oxygen to these patients. The interrupted supply could be linked to the deaths of the patients in the hospital,
State Minister Aaditya Thackeray called the incident unfortunate and promised a probe in the matter. "The accident at Zakir Hussain Hospital is extremely unfortunate. We all share in the grief of all these families. Guardian Minister Chhagan Bhujbal and all the officials are in touch with Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray. This unfortunate incident will be thoroughly investigated," he tweeted in Marathi. Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Majeed Memon tweeted that people responsible for the leak must be punished "Leakage of Oxygen from tanker in Nasik has caused loss of several litres of oxygen and panic in the Hospital. Those responsible for negligence must be identified and punished," Mr Memon tweeted.
