Dr Gaurav Medikeri interviewed by Barkha Dutt
From the HCG Hospital in Bengaluru Barkha Dutt meets the frontline doctors who are running an entire MucorMycosis or Black Fungus ward in the hospital battling multiple surgeries and a drug shortage over the last fortnight. Doctors here believe it neither industrial oxygen nor steroids that is triggering the lethal infections in COVID recovering patients, but the mutant strain itself. Barkha Dutt reports from Inside the Black Fungus Ward of the hospital where 4 survivors share their personal stories- one has lost an eye, one part of his jaw, one had a brain infection and another a lung procedure.
