Seventy-four patients have died at the Goa Medical College and Hospital – the biggest Covid facility in the state – in the past four days, all reportedly due to a lack of medical oxygen. Thirteen people died in the “critical dark hours” between 1 am and 6 am on Friday, according to former Deputy Chief Minister Vijai Sardesai, whose Goa Forward Party was allied with the ruling BJP before quitting last month over “anti-Goan policies”. Around the same time on Thursday morning, 15 deaths were recorded. The day before – Wednesday – 20 people died, and on Tuesday, also between 2 and 6 am, 26 people lost their lives. Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, who visited the hospital on Tuesday, said the gap between the “availability of medical oxygen and its supply might have caused some issues”.
