It is stated in the letter that the doctors would be on duty in the corona ward but that precautionary measures should be taken to prevent corona. The letter also objected against giving additional duties to the doctors.

The letter issued by the Department of Dermatology, Mayo Hospital said that the doctors of our department were on duty at the Expo Quarantine Center for the patients of Corona but they did not receive any training on prevention and care of the patients.

“The lives of the doctors are in danger,” the chairman of the neurology department said in a letter to Mayo Hospital’s Chief Executive. “Deploying untrained doctors to the Corona Ward is tantamount to playing with their lives. If the doctors are refusing then how can I tell them, when 5 doctors have already fallen victim to Corona.”
