A woman has alleged that her COVID-19 positive father was not admitted in time by a Delhi government hospital and he died on Thursday, a charge denied by the authorities.
The woman, Amarpreet Kaur, took to Twitter earlier in the day, saying, “My dad is having high fever. We need to shift him to the hospital. I am standing outside LNJP Delhi and they are not taking him in. He is having corona, high fever, and breathing problem. He won’t survive without help. Pls help.”
An hour later, she again tweeted, saying, “He is no more. The govt failed us.”
Her tweets were widely circulated on social media. Ms Kaur is a social activist, her family said.
The authorities at the Lok Nayak Jai Prakash Narayan (LNJP) Hospital, a dedicated COVID-19 facility, denied the charge, saying the patient was “brought dead”.
