A message is doing the rounds on social media claiming that the armed forces have set up a 1000-bed COVID-19 care hospital near Mumbai airport. "There is a message circulating on social media that a 1000 bedded #COVID19 care hospital by Indian Armed Forces has been established near Airport terminal T1 at #Mumbai. This has no basis and is FAKE news," Defence Ministry's Mumbai PRO said in a tweet from its official account. This state-of-the-art 1000-bedded COVID care hospital is very close to domestic airport T1. However, the source of the message is yet unknown and the fake message shouldn't be circulated and the spreading of misinformation should be prevented.
