He also said that from a total of 16 patients on Friday, 13 of them are being treated in the ICU and the other 3 are in the regular isolation rooms. Despite the reduction of Covid-19 cases in the Sanglah Hospital, Dr. Sudana admitted that the hospital still needs to be aware as Covid transmissions tend to surge once the holiday season ends. “We were recently warned by the Health Minister to keep alert and to always be prepared as Covid cases usually tend to surge after the holidays.” Dr. Sudana concluded.
