Lack of space to admit corona patients at Trincomalee General Hospital- Patients in the outpatient chair for many hours! Trincomalee General Hospital has reported a shortage of space to accommodate the increasing number of corona patients and has been sitting in the OPD chair for several hours after the infection was confirmed.A pregnant woman has informed about the tragic incident today (14).Due to the increasing number of patients in the district at present, those who go to the Trincomalee General Hospital for treatment are taken to the 09th ward allotted to the corona patients after the antigen test is done at the place where the patients are admitted and then the infection is confirmed. The Trincomalee General Hospital is overflowing with VAT reserved for corona patients, causing delays in admitting patients and thus posing a risk of temple-19 infection to patients coming in for other treatments.

Patients are also demanding that the Trincomalee General Hospital administration increase new vats and beds to address the shortage of space as the rate of infections increases.

However, the management of the Trincomalee General Hospital should take immediate action to increase the number of corona watt beds and provide clean drinking water for the benefit of the patients.

Therefore, the intellectuals demand that the patients who come to the Trincomalee General Hospital be warmly welcomed and that steps be taken to send the confirmed patients immediately from the outpatient department to the corona unit without delay.
