Mumbai: There are less than 1,000 Covid-19 patients who claim to be in various hospitals in the city, according to the BMC Covid update on Tuesday.
“This is the lowest covid occupancy in the years in Mumbai,” said the additional Commissioner BMC Suresh Kakani to Ti.
Of the 36,853 beds intended for Covid in the city, only 988 (less than 3%) was occupied now.
Only 38 people were hospitalized on Tuesday, said BMC Covid’s update.
During the first wave in 2020, the city has around 11,000 beds in the public and private sector.
This number rose to 21,000 during the second wave caused by the Delta variant.
Before the third wave, BMC founded several Jumbo field hospitals and increased the strength of the bed to 35,000-pluses.
Low residence proves that omicron-covid waves are the lightest, with covid patients who do not need hospitalization.
“This might be due to extensive vaccination in Mumbai and the use of masks,” Kakani said.
More than 96% of the 92.3 population of adults lakh had taken vaccine photos in Mumbai.
Omicron Wavel rises so fast so the residential bed 4,043 on January 2 jumped to 8,727 on January 11.
Among other things, the city reached the highest one-day calculation in two years of pandemic on January 7 with 20,971 cases.
While the occupancy of the bed did not exceed 30% during the third wave, it was more than 80% over the previous two waves.
Decreased clearer in private hospitals.
“About 80% of patients in hospitals in Mumbai are in Jumbo centers operated by BMC,” said a doctor.
At Fortis Hospital, Mulund, a doctor said for the first time in two years (every time the covid waves were active), there was no new covid entrance ticket at the hospital on Monday.
