Namma Bengaluru Foundation distributes 10 oxygen concentrators to government hospitals in city
NBF has taken up this drive and urges corporates and individuals to come forward and contribute to help fight the second wave of the coronavirus.
FollowBengaluru is going through a major pandemic crisis and the city needs as many oxygen concentrators as possible to help hospitals and families of individuals affected by Covid-19. Providing oxygen for a large number of critical Covid patients is the need of the hour and the shortfall in supply.
This is being bridged by oxygen concentrators which can fulfil the gap by providing relief to patients when supply is short and they need oxygen support for breathing issues.
Namma Bengaluru Foundation (NBF) in association with Amazon has distributed 10 oxygen concentrators to Sir C V Raman General Hospital, Indiranagar Government Hospital for patients who require oxygen.
