Bengaluru: Karnataka government has to declare a health emergency and work accordingly in the wake of the drastic surge in Covid positive cases, said JDS supremo and former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda.

Deve Gowda in a letter to Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa said that more people are getting infected in the second wave of the pandemic.

“With government and private hospitals struggling with the overload of patients, many of the affected are not able to get beds and medicines,” he wrote in the letter.

Gowda also said that the government has to focus on supplying required facilities to hospitals, including oxygen and ventilators.
