Special Report, Headline 8 – The Covid epidemic has pushed the world into an uncertain period of time for three long years. The state of Assam is no exception from it.
The state government is also making efforts to prevent the epidemic by spending crores of rupees in coordination with the Centre but some unscrupulous traders are indulging in a vicious conspiracy to disturb this entire series of efforts.
Headline 8’s own investigation lay bare the terrible fact that some private sector hospitals in Guwahati, were carrying out an active drive of providing double-vaccination and RT-PCR negative reports in exchange for money. A person can get a Covid report from a private sector hospital or RT-PCR just by paying, and without any blood or phlegm sample. This network of fraud sources from a luxurious hospital in Guwahati. We have already been able to get information about many people collecting negative reports and necessary check-up certificates for travel from this hospital every day.
Notably, apart from providing fake Covid certificates, this cycle can also deliver the inclusion of the names of individuals in the ICMR database. The cycle, which has been collecting Rs 1200 for each RT-PCR report and Rs 2000 for each double-vaccination certificate; has been exposed of this terrible incident active since last year. Several hospitals have been found to be involved in the conspiracy so far.
At a time when Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has been calling upon the people of the state to complete the double vaccination, how dare these hospitals break the entire system? Or How can these private sector hospitals set windows in different parts of the state every day? Do have some special favors of some higher official in the Health Department. This is how many Covid positives get their hands on negative RT-PCR certificates from hospitals.
Are these medical institutions that are supposed to be our saviors spreading the horrific virus throughout the state?
Headline 8 continues its investigation regarding the matter. We will uncover the masks of many such institutions behind such evils.
