India's Biggest Isolation Facility Planned At Seven-Hills

This biggest isolation ward will be at the Seven-Hills Hospital, Marol, and have 1,500 beds. Currently, the hospital has 350 quarantine beds and an extra 100 isolation beds.

“The government is trying to concentrate on centres, rather than setting up such facilities in different hospitals, as doing the latter carries the risk of further spreading the virus to patients being treated for other ailments,” said an official.
