A temporary hospital is under construction in Biratnagar targeting Covid-19 patients, in March 2020.

Biratnagar, March 29

The Province 1 government is constructing a temporary hospital dedicated to Covid-19 patients in the provincial headquarters, Biratnagar.

The government claims the construction of the 50-bed facility will be complete in the next three days. The hospital will also board a 10-bed ventilator ward.

Sagar Prasain, the coordinator of the Provincial Hospital Management Committee, says works are underway to install necessary structures and equipment now. It has been learned that the hospital will borrow some equipment from other health facilities in the city as purchasing them will take time.

The provincial Social Development Ministry will manage the necessary human resources for the hospital. Nepal Army, Nepal Police and Armed Police Force will also provide support.
