Srikakulam District Medical and Health Officer KC Chandra Nayak suspended three nurses S. Rajeswari, K. Sridevi and B. Ujwala for not working at Gems Hospital, a COVID-19 designated hospital.
He said strict measures would be taken against doctors, nurses and staff who could not perform their duties in hospitals where they were stationed. The department found that many doctors, nurses, and others did not participate in tasks that indicated illness and work pressure.
