NAWABSHAH, June 15: A man bitten by a snake was shifted to Hyderabad on Thursday as there was no drug to treat snake-bite cases in the People’s Medical College Hospital.
Railway employee Saeen Bux Mari was bitten by the snake in Kot Laloo near Padidan. He was taken to the PMCH but could not be treated due to non-availability of the drug. There is a shortage of the drug in the hospital for a long time and many patients have died.
PMCH medical superintendent Dr Mehfooz Qureshi said that he had written a letter to the National Institute of Health Islamabad and the drug would arrive soon.
