The death of a worker, published in the corona neighborhood in Mumbai’s KEM hospital has triggered huge protests on the part of medical staff and other employees outside of the state of execution of the facilities. Hundreds of doctors, paramedics, and others were seen protesting in masks and other protective gear for Tuesday.
The worker, a daily wager who had allegedly been refused to leave despite the fact that he had been sick for four days, died on Sunday night. If he died of COVID-19 will be known only after the results of their tests are out. But your body has been in the hospital morgue since the previous night.
His family should be compensated with a job and financial aid, the protest of the employees have demanded.
But the doctors, nurses, assistants and Class 4 employees have joined together to call attention to the appalling crisis of cases of the virus and organisms increasingly difficult for hospitals to manage.

The bodies, wrapped in blue plastic, were allegedly moved from an overflowing of the ground floor of the morgue on the first floor of the hospital, along a corridor to the right, next to a testing laboratory.
Like many others in Mumbai, the KEM Hospital, run by the civic body BMC or Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation, has been stretched to the limit due to the rise of cases of the virus, and inadequate staff.
The doctors say that there is a different protocol to wrap the bodies of COVID-19 patients, and these are handled by the Class 4 employees trained to do so.
The shortage of these workers has often forced physicians and paramedics to take on this type of tasks, which has fueled even more anger against hospital administrations.
Recently, after back-to-back videos of plastic bags in the neighborhoods, the civic body is to respect what it is imperative to remove the bodies of the neighborhoods within 30 minutes and to dispose of them within two hours.
The BMC also ordered a mobile temporary morgue in the crematorium to put an end to the site of the bodies piled up, waiting to be cremated.
Mumbai, the city most affected by the pandemic in India, has more than 31,000 coronavirus cases and over 1,000 deaths.
