Shocking video of doctors kicking down the door of a room of a COVID-19 patient at the Isolation Unit at the Diamond Hospital was made public yesterday with patients expressing frustration that despite concerns continually being raised, the authorities continue to pay little heed and take minimal action.

Stabroek News was told that the patient, who had been there for over two weeks, was retested that same day and objected to a new patient who had just arrived at Diamond after being tested positive for COVID-19, being placed in the same room.

I mean, the patients make reasonable requests on issues which can be solved quite easily and at no great cost but the people higher up don’t seem to care, not for the medical teams and certainly not for the patients.

Regional Health Officer of Demerara/Mahaica (Region Four) Dr. Quincy Jones had replied to the Stabroek News’ article saying that at Diamond they are handling the majority of COVID-19 patients.

Stabroek News understands that though the majority of the COVID-19 patients are housed at Diamond, it is the Georgetown Public Hospital that receives most of the supplies.
