In the wake of increasing cases of viral fever and common cold, Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital (IGMH) has begun providing flu clinic services.
In an announcement, the hospital revealed that the number of individuals seeking treatment for fever, the common cold and flu symptoms has been spiraling. This provoked the management to make arrangements for patients to come through their flu clinic to seek treatment, open from Thursday onwards.
The flu clinic will be open from 8am to 11pm.
With an increase in common cold cases, the Flu Clinic was established for those who have symptoms to easily consult.
The Health Protection Agency (HPA) has warned caution in the midst of an alarming increase in wide-spreading common cold infections as well as Covid-19.
Although authorities have been successful in controlling the spread of Covid-19 nationwide over the past few months, there has been an alarming surge in infections in recent weeks.
Further, cases of influenza reported over the past few months have also been increasing.
The public has been urged to take precautionary measures, in this regard.
