By Siraj Khan, Nepalgunj, Apr. 13: Bheri Hospital has been overcrowded with COVID-19 patients with the rise in the number of people infected with the virus.
Tej Oli, Corona focal person of Banke district, said that problem has emerged as the corona ward of the Bheri Hospital has 20 beds, 10 ICUs and 10 ventilators, while there are 40 critical patients of COVID-19 admitted in the hospital.
