Hyderabad: Seven Covid patients admitted to the government-run King Koti Hospital in Hyderabad passed away after an oxygen tanker heading to the healthcare centre lost its way.
The delay cost a disruption in oxygen supply.
The oxygen tank at the hospital was showing low pressure from the afternoon and the authorities sought a refill. But the tanker carrying oxygen lost its way while heading to the hospital.
The Naryanguda police of Hyderabad traced the tanker and guided it to the hospital, but seven patients had already lost their lives by then.
