COVID-19: Demand For Oxygen Rises To 400 Cylinders Per Day In Lagos – Sanwo-Olu
LAGOS FEBRUARY 2ND (NEWSRANGERS)-Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has said that the demand for oxygen by coronavirus patients has increased to 400 cylinders per day.
Sanwo-Olu made this known on Sunday in a statement in which he updated residents on the management of Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the state.
He reiterated that oxygen was free in all Lagos State-owned COVID-19 treatment centres.
“Considering that oxygen demand has spiked to between 300 and 400 cylinders per day across state-owned treatment facilities, the government is working hard to ensure availability.
“To this end, a second oxygen plant is under construction at the Gbagada General Hospital and will come on-stream within the next seven days.
“It is expected that this will boost the in-house capacity and availability of oxygen across all state government-managed treatment centres”, the governor said.
