on Friday Bengaluru reported 2,208 new cases; a day earlier it reported 2,344 new cases and on Wednesday 1,975 COVID-19 cases were detected
Among a spike in COVID-19 cases in Bengaluru, hospitals have been given instructions to confess only patients with moderate or severe symptoms. Mild and asymptomatic cases are to be mentioned to COVID-19 care centers or heartened to stay in home isolation, the government said Saturday.
In its notification, the government said: “moderately and severely ill COVID-19 patients are sometimes unable to get admission… in this context, it would be prudent to admit moderately and severely ill patients, both government and private, and encourage asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic patients to get admitted in COVID care centers or be in-home isolation”.
