77% non-Covid-19 ICUs in Delhi now occupied: data

The number of patients visiting hospitals with ailments other than Covid-19 has reached the same levels as before the lockdown enforced on March 25.

Delhi govt data shows, almost 75% of the beds in non-Covid-19 ICUs are occupied, compared to 54% of Covid-19 ICU beds.

The Delhi government has started updating information on the availability of non-Covid ICU beds in its 'Delhi Corona' app after a rap from the Delhi high court.

The court issued the order when Delhi government’s decision to reserve 80% of the ICU beds in 33 big private hospitals to ensure availability of Covid-19 beds was challenged.
