AMRI Hospital on Saturday said that governments of the North-Eastern states, particularly Mpur and Tripura, have asked their health workers who are working in the hospital to return to their native states amid COVID-19 outbreak.
Rupak Barua, CEO, AMRI Hospitals, said that they were quite dependent on the doctors belonging to North-East states and it is a major problem.
"The governments of North-East, particularly Mpur and Tripura, have asked their health workers working in different states to return to their native states amid COVID-19 lockdown. This is a major problem here because we are quite dependent on them," Barua said.
According to the Union Health Ministry, West Bengal has reported 2,461 COVID-19 cases so far.
