@CMOMaharashtra @AUThackeray On 17th May, 2020 my father fainted at home, early morning. So we rushed him to the nearest hospital in our area called Appex hospital, Borivali East.
But hospital denied the admission, after making us wait for 20 odd mins
as he had fainted they assumed its #COVID-19 case.

After that we were helpless and we moved him to Dhanashree hospital, Borivali West , where my father in law regained consciousness , they checked his temperature and informed us that the oxygen level
was low in his body and there's no oxygen available there, so we had to move him again to another hospital.

Then we reached to the third hospital called Pheonix in Borivali west where doctor declared him as dead, after he was admitted for couple of minutes.
And the ECG report during the admission had nothing but a flat line. We lost precious time in moving him from one hospital to the third one.

The sheer negligence and stupidity of the Appex hospital, which refused to admit him played a pivotal role in denying
him the much needed oxygen which led to a major heart attack. He could have been saved, only if appex hospital could have addressed him and he could have gotten necessary treatment.

If these hospitals refuse to admit regular patients with other ailments
just because of the corona fear we may lose people who need basic treatment, and who could be easily saved.

I hope strict action is taken against appex hospital and its staff. In these tough times, we as citizens have limited options
even when it comes to basic medical assistance, and if these hospitals operate in such stupid way, we might lose few more lives and then where shall the common man go?
