Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope on Thursday has assured the people that both the medicines, Remdesivir and Favipiravir which are proved to be effective in treating COVID-19 affected people will be available in all the districts in coming 2 days and we are ensuring that it will be available for all.
Maharashtra has the highest number of active Covid-19 cases, is facing a shortage of Remdesivir because the local authorities are yet to place orders for the medicines.
Plasma therapy is still a very effective way of treatment, 9 out of 10 patients are getting better through this treatment. He informed that a total of 93,000 patients have been recovered till now.
