Ambulances roam streets of Meerut, looking for Covid19 patients who need oxygen in the ambulances

From the archive record

Ambulances line up outside private hospitals, for business. Ambulances seem to be doing roaring business as they are over-charging patients in many cases, especially those that are equipped with oxygen. Some patients who are not finding hospital beds are choosing to circle their city in an ambulance just to be able to receive some oxygen. This is the scene in Meerut, near Delhi, with empty streets, ambulances all around and a shortage of oxygen beds in the hospitals. Medical shops do brisk business as patients' families visit for medicines and Covid19 supplies.
