Actor Sonu Sood arranged for a critically ill Covidpatient to be airlifted from Jhansi to Hyderabad after doctors at the localhospital said the treatment wouldn't be possible in Jhansi any longer.
The patient, Kailash Agarwal's CT score was just a pointbelow the highest permissible limit, and the family, while searching for ahospital with better infrastructure, put in a request to Sonu.
The actor and his team got into action, which led to the availability of an ICU bed with a ventilator facility in Hyderabad.
"Doctors had asked the patient to be shifted to abigger hospital, and the challenge was to get the necessary permissions fromthe District Magistrates in order to get the air ambulance and get the transferdone. As there are no airports at Jhansi, the air ambulance had to pick up thepatient from Gwalior, and it was another major challenge to bring the patientfrom Jhansi to Gwalior. But the team came through and got everything set up sothat no time was wasted. The treatment is going on well at Apollo Hospital,Hyderabad and we hope for the best," Sonu told IANS.
As per the latest reports, the patient is stable and isresponding to treatment.
