Mangaluru, Mar 24, 2020: Following widespread misconceptions regarding the way in which suspected Coronavirus patients are treated at Wenlock, mainly due to some fake social media posts, Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel visited the Hospital and interacted with the Medical Superintendent Dr Rajeshwari Devi, Deputy Commissioner Sindhu B Rupesh and other officials.
The Deputy Commissioner informed the MP that so far only one person has been tested positive for Covid-19 in the district and also informed him that suspected Coronavirus patients are being treated in a separate block.
The DC also told the MP that the hospital has arrangements to treat as many as 200 patients and there was nothing to worry.
District Health officer and other officials were present.
