The Union Health Ministry has for the first time admitted that some patients who were on ventilator support died while undergoing treatment for COVID-19 due to inadequate oxygen supply.

Without specifying the exact number, Minister of State Bharati Pravin Pawar said in the Rajya Sabha on Tuesday that in May, Andhra Pradesh had reported that some patients had died after a drop in oxygen pressure at a hospital, as per the preliminary inquiry.

The Ministry had maintained that “no State has so far specifically told the Ministry about deaths due to oxygen shortage’’ and that only one State noted suspected deaths due to inadequate oxygen supply.
