JAIPUR: District Collector Antar Singh Nehra on Wednesday directed the managers and directors of all private hospitals to apply online at JDzonejaipur@yahoo.com till 11am for distribution of Remdesivir injections, which will be provided to them on the basis of requirement, utility and availability on the recommendation of district-level three-member committee.
He said the drugs will not be distributed to the private hospitals without producing an authorisation letter issued by the hospital and I-cards. Nehra said, “It is necessary for the private hospitals to send information about the status of patients along with an application. Applications will not be accepted offline or through a hardcopy. Online applications can be sent daily by the hospital by 11am through their email IDs. Applications received after 11am will be considered the next day.” Remdesivir will be distributed daily from the office of CMHO-1 from 2pm onwards.
Meanwhile, there’s a huge gap between demand and supply of Remdesivir for private hospitals in the state. While the state government has received 450 vials of Remdesivir injections from seven companies, there is a current demand for 5,000 vials in private hospitals across the state, said an official.
