A governor in Western is on the spot after it emerged that health facilities are struggling to cope with an influx of Covid-19 patients. The governor had told residents that measures were in place to keep the disease at bay. The pandemic's second wave, however, has exposed the county's state of unpreparedness. Frontline health workers are planning to hold protests over lack of personal protective equipment. Meanwhile, patients in isolation are being held indefinitely as they cannot be released without being tested.
