Delhi, India (The CTP News) – India is infected with more than 400,000 people in a single day. This large country with a total population of nearly 1.4 billion is facing the biggest crisis since the epidemic and the crisis of medical oxygen shortage caused by logistics. India has 4,12,262 new cases and 3,980 deaths in the past 24 hours. On April 30, India became the first country in the world to report 400,000 infections in one day. At that time, India reported 408,000 infections.

Patients in India are severely deficient in medical oxygen. But why is there such a shortage? In the past week or so, India has clearly lacked medical oxygen, which is obvious. You can see the debate on oxygen cylinders in every forum, and doctors and hospitals don’t know where to buy more medical oxygen. But what is medical oxygen? Medical oxygen is different from the air we breathe. Medical oxygen is at least 82% pure oxygen without any pollution, including pollution from other gases. On the contrary, the atmosphere we breathe contains various gases, such as nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide, etc., and only 21% oxygen.
In severe Covid-19 cases, the oxygen content in the body will drop sharply. In this case, the cells in the body do not have enough oxygen to perform their normal functions. If the oxygen shortage problem is not resolved, the cells may actually start to die. Every organ in our body, whether it is the heart, brain, lungs or kidneys, all needs oxygen.
According to experts, what India lacks is not medical oxygen. The problem is transportation and logistics. The country does not have enough cryogenic trucks to facilitate round-the-clock transportation. The government is currently solving this problem, including the use of rail transportation and better transportation mechanisms.
