The Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) today said that seven Guyana Defence Force (GDF) members who were injured this morning in a collision between a truck and a bus on the Garden of Eden Public Road, East Bank Demerara are being treated at the GPHC.
The hospital said that the victim, who sustained the most severe injuries, dislocated his left hip and has a fractured left tibia. Another victim fractured his left forearm and will undergo elective surgical reduction. A victim who is experiencing neck pains has been sent for x-rays to rule out c-spine injury. The others have been sent for x-rays.
A few persons were also referred from the GDF’s medical core for x-rays.
