Mumbai: Commissioner BMC Iqbal Chahal on Friday said that vaccination work and civil data showed that 96% of the 1,900 strange patients at this time at the oxygen bed in Mumbai had not taken a dose of Covid-19 vaccine.
Meanwhile, BMC has decided that it is not like the first and second waves where participants are a benchmark to impose locking or limitations, in the third wave of further sidewalks will be charged only if there is a high level of hospitalization and a steep increase in oxygen use.
“Ninety-six percent of patients treated in the bed of oxygen in 186 Mumbai Hospital were not vaccinated.
Otherwise we have seen so far a vaccinated person does not reach an icus.
We have 21 lakh vaccine shares available with us.
Current obstacles In ensuring the entire population of adults vaccinated is a gap 84 days needed between two doses.
Today is also, the percentage of vaccination we are the best in India, “Chahal said in a TV interview.
He said people should not think of omicron variants as flu, adding if not vaccinated it can certainly get infected people to the ICU.
BMC has given a dose to more than one crore of people in Mumbai while almost 90 lakh has received one vaccine shot.
Chahal also reaffirms further restrictions will be imposed in the third wave only if there is an inpatient burden and the use of oxygen increases sharply.
In Covid’s death, Chahal said they were in control with 19 deaths in the last 16 days.
“Although Mumbai has one active lakh case at this time, only 10 tons of oxygen used.
During the second wave, oxygen manufacture by BMC is zero but this time we have 400 tons of oxygen storage and 200 tons of our own manufacturing, which only used 10 tons .
Only if there is pressure (in health care), the limit will be considered.
But today 84% of the blank hospital beds and from 20,000 cases reported in Mumbai yesterday (January 6), only 102 people were placed on oxygen beds as a problem Prevention.
