Ever since the Covid-19 hit the globe, Health has become a priority not only for an individual but also the government. Bihar has also been spending more on this sector for the opening of new health institutes, procurement of equipment and recruitment and training of healthcare workers.
Experts say a vast change is being seen in the availability of Oxygen and ICU beds. At present, over 400 MT of oxygen can be generated from different pressure swing adsorption Plants and cryogenic tanks in Bihar, apart from different types of cylinders and concentrators available in the state. This is more than the peak equipment of the second wave when 377 MT was needed in the state on the day it had the highest number of Covid cases.
