"In addition to these issues, the learned Advocate General also offers to communicate to this Court the State's policy decision, if any, on the procurement of vaccination shots from sources other than the Union Government," a division bench of M.S. Sonak and S.C. Gupte said on Monday.
"We are also of the view that whilst the State has proposed much-needed augmentation of medical infrastructure for Covid-19 treatment, there has been no clarity on proportionate increase of manpower required for handling this additional infrastructure to enable it to cater to additional patients," the Bombay High Court further said.
The Court is hearing a bunch of petitions which have questioned the state government's Covid-19 management mechanisms. Nearly 80 persons have died at the state's top government hospital due to oxygen shortage earlier this month.
The next hearing is scheduled to be held on May 28.
