Remdesivir Crisis

A Delhi court today denied bail to a man arrested for allegedly possessing fake Remdesivir injections, saying that he attempted to play with the lives of patients who urgently needed the medicine during the unprecedented Covid times.

Three people, including a doctor working in a Delhi hospital, have been arrested in Uttar Pradesh's Noida for allegedly selling Remdesivir injections at black market rates to needy people amid COVID-19 crisis, officials said.

The Delhi High Court on Wednesday objected to a "change" by the Centre in the Covid treatment protocol related to Remdesivir use amid a shortage of the drug, saying "it appears you want people to die".

As several states battle an acute oxygen crisis triggered by a surge in Covid cases, Assam Health Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday said his state had a surplus of the gas and ready stock of antiviral drug Remdesivir
