MUSCAT: The Royal Hospital noted the prohibition of visits to all inpatients, with the exception of parents accompanying their children, due to the high number of people infected with the Covid-19 virus.
As of Tuesday, 181 patients were admitted to hospitals across the country in the last 24 hours, taking the total number of inpatients to 1,613 including 525 in intensive care units.
According to figures from Sultan Qaboos University, 106 people have been admitted for Covid related treatment, of which 45 require assisted ventilation (ICU), 18 require invasive mechanical ventilation (IVM), 30 on invasive mechanical ventilation, and 58 in Covid wards that do not require assisted ventilation.
MoH has warned that the Sultanate is currently seeing a worrying rise in the number of Covid-19 infections, which has led to an increase in the number of inpatients in health institutions, including those in intensive care departments.
