All is not well with the staff members of civic-run Balasaheb Thackeray Trauma Hospital in Jogeshwari. While the doctors and other medical staff have written a letter to the hospital dean citing a number of problems, including lack of safety kits, the administration in return has asked the staff to perform their duties or face disciplinary action.

The medical staff has been asking the hospital administration to provide them with adequate safety kits and protective equipment as the hospital has been treating COVID-19 patients. Speaking on condition of anonymity, a doctor told mid-day, "We are here to perform our duties. Even we want to be part of the team that is fighting to tackle the current situation. But, since doctors are facing shortage of safety kits, they are asking for better and more safety."
