He simultaneously released three telephone numbers - 9908000013, 9779171507, and 8427544763 which could be contacted for availing the services of the Plasma Bank.
Romana said patients requiring Plasma could also tag him on Twitter and he would respond appropriately. “The YAD will do its best to ensure that no life is lost due to lack of availability of Plasma”.
Meanwhile, Romana said that the central, as well as the Punjab government, were equally responsible for the rise in Covid cases as well as fatalities.
He said it was unfortunate that the Prime Minister and the Union health minister had chosen to focus on elections in several States instead of boosting the health infrastructure.
