No food shortage at Port Kaituma hospital

Region One Chairman Fermin Singh yesterday said that there is no food shortage at the Port Kaituma Hospital, while explaining that a delay in getting food to a patient may have been responsible for a false alarm by residents.

Stabroek News had been told by residents that the hospital had been affected by a food shortage for the past two weeks and that patients without relatives in the area were suffering. This newspaper was also told that persons were forced to remove their relatives
