India's desperate Covid-19 patients turn to black market for drugs

L Anto Rosario Good Health and Well-being

Akhilesh Mishra started getting a fever and a cough last Thursday but he initially thought it was just the flu.

Akhilesh began to worry the next day, when his father Yogendra developed similar symptoms. The two men decided to get Covid RT-PCR tests done and tried to book a slot online but the next available appointment was three days later.

They finally managed to get a slot on Sunday. In the meantime, Yogendra was running a very high fever and his doctor advised him to look for a hospital bed, which turned out to be another daunting task. They were turned away by many private hospitals in the city of Noida and also in the capital, Delhi.
