The COVID-19 Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at the Infectious Disease Hospital at Liliendaal is fully operational, Minister of Health Dr Frank Anthony has announced.
As a result, all critical COVID-19 patients will now be monitored and isolated at the facility and this will allow for certain surgeries to recommence at the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH).
Speaking with Sunday Stabroek yesterday, Anthony disclosed that all the COVID-19 ICU beds from the GPH have been transferred to the Infectious Disease Hospital as part of final arrangements to get the hospital functional, thereby allowing for critical COVID-19 patients to be monitored at the facility.
