Share:ISLAMABAD - Around one dozen departments in Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) including children and COVID-19 ICUs are deprived of the air conditioners while doctors have demanded a theft inquiry on missing air conditioners from the Outpatient Department (OPD). The clinical officials including doctors and nurses alleged the incharge of the air conditioning department for showing negligence in maintenance of air conditioners (ACs). Doctors initially stormed into the room of the ACs incharge who was not present in the office; however, in the video his own air conditioner was working.
