Even as several big hospitals got fresh Oxygen stock on Wednesday night, several small hospitals in Delhi struggled to replenish oxygen supply for coronavirus patients on Thursday morning. Hospitals in the city have been grappling with a shortage of oxygen supply amid spiralling Covid-19 cases.

Several private hospitals complained that no help has reached them. Officials at the 210-bed Mata Chanan Devi Hospital sent an SOS to the Delhi government as their “oxygen supplier didn't fulfil commitments”, PTI has reported.

50-bed Dharamveer Solanki Hospital is using the “back up” which will last till Thursday afternoon.
