As oxygen is running out at KIST Medical College Teaching Hospital in Patan, the hospital’s chief operating officer Amish Pathak is doing everything he can. He is calling oxygen plants, but they tell him they do not have any. A similar answer comes from the Health Ministry and the Covid-19 Crisis Management Centre as Pathak, for the patient’s sake, does all he can to get two cylinders of oxygen.
