Tirupati: Eleven Covid-19 patients died at a government hospital in Tirupati, AP on Monday evening due to a disruption in oxygen supply.

According to District Collector,

• There was a five-minute lag in reloading the oxygen cylinder that caused the pressure to drop”
• The oxygen supply was restored within five minutes and everything is now normal. We have connected bulk cylinders and there is no reason to worry. A major disaster was averted because of quick action by the medical staff.
• The hospital has a capacity of over 1,100 beds; there are over 100 patients in the ICU and 400 on oxygen beds. About 30 doctors were immediately rushed into the ICU to attend to the patients.

The delay in the arrival of an oxygen tanker from Tamil Nadu had triggered the crisis.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has condoled the deaths of the patients and ordered an inquiry into the incident.
