Pertinently, due to rapid rise in COVID-19 cases in the District and in light of the huge influx of patients from other states to Punjab and the occupancy of beds reaching 90% , the availability of adequate and uninterrupted supply of Medical Oxygen is an important pre-requisite for managing moderate and severe cases of COVID-19 and with the increasing cases, the medical oxygen supply needs to keep pace with the requirements of patient care
