NEW DELHI: More than a day after the first case of bird flu was detected in the country, most city hospitals say they are yet to receive instructions on tackling it.
"We will hold a meeting on Monday and then decide what to do. From what we understand, there is no need for ear-marking any hospital wards.
As far as medicines are concerned, they are needed for those who have been directly exposed to the infected birds which hasn't happened here as yet," said principal secretary (health) Rakesh Mehta.
