Why are doctors so scared to treat patients who are not infected with corona?

My mom here is having allergic reaction and is in serious condition. I called so many hospitals but none want to admit her. I am seriously losing respect for doctors. This is how health care is in India.

because they are afraid to infect her.... and make a serious condition much much worse...

Both because they're afraid to infect her and worsen the spread and because a lot of places are really low on hospital beds. Hospitals where I live are completely full with people who are infected with Corona, and they've converted school gyms and stadiums to be "hospitals" for those in medical need who AREN'T infected. If it's not life threatening, they aren't accepting people to the hospitals

This is a very bad time to need the medical system. Anywhere, really.

Probably they think Corona is much more important?

I'm sorry mate 😟

@SW-User there are 700 positive cases and 20 deaths related to corona here out of more than a billion people. You still think those patients are important?

@SW-User Those numbers will increase unless the politicians cover up the extent of this pandemic. Contact a pharmacist regarding your mother. Sometimes they can be of help.

Try calling an ambulance? They'll treat reactions at the scene...

Allergic reaction and you just called? Didn't you take her to the ER to be assessed first?
