The number of SOS calls also went down, with the Delhi government receiving nine SOS calls from hospitals due to insufficient or near-empty oxygen reserves. According to Delhi government's Corona Dashboard, at least 7 hospitals were still functioning with less than 2 hours of oxygen supply left. Meanwhile, a total of 1,406 oxygen cylinders have been provided by district magistrates to COVID-19 patients recovering in home isolation in Delhi, officials said on Friday. According to the latest health bulletin released by the Delhi government, 50,425 patients are in home isolation. Patients in home isolation can contact the concerned district magistrate for empty or filled cylinder, an official said.
