The resident doctors say the conditions were generated from a thorough observation of the situation and facilities available to combat the deadly virus.
The conditions were contained in a statement jointly signed by the association’s president, Abraham Akinbola, and general secretary, Abubakar Usman.
The statement also called for the upgrading of the Isolation Centre at the teaching hospital in Ogbomoso to accommodate more patients while adequate arrangement should be made to improve manpower at the hospital. It called for ‘proper appreciation’ of health workers in the state as recently done by the Federal Government, saying they deserved this as frontline workers in the COVID-19 battle.“A group life insurance policy must be put in place to cater for indemnity of our members in the course of discharging their duties both during this pandemic era and thereafter,” it added.
