Third Covid wave impending, finish vaccination: Supreme Court
The Supreme Court Thursday flagged warnings about an impending third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic and stressed on the need to complete vaccination and create buffer stocks of oxygen.
A bench of Justices D Y Chandrachud and M R Shah also called upon the Centre to ensure Delhi continues to get 700 metric tonnes (MT) of liquid medical oxygen (LMO) and reiterated the need to re-examine the current formula for supplying oxygen, which is based on the number of ICU and non-ICU beds. The court was told Delhi had been supplied 730 MT oxygen on Wednesday.
