Assam’s Health Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said Gogoi’s condition deteriorated Saturday afternoon with trouble breathing, after which doctors started an intubation ventilator.
“Doctors are doing everything possible to revive their organs with drugs and other medical methods. Doctors will also try dialysis, ”said the Health Minister, adding that the next 48-72 hours are very critical and doctors are doing everything possible.
He also said that GMCH doctors are in constant contact with experts from the Indian Institute of Medical Sciences in Delhi, as his conditions do not allow him to be transferred out of state for medical treatment.
Gogoi had tested positive for COVID-19 on August 25 and was admitted to GMCH the following day, where he was administered plasma therapy. He was released from the hospital, after two months, on October 25 after recovering from COVID-19 infection and other post-recovery complications.
