RPG Enterprises Chairman Harsh Goenka, who’s known for his witty tweets, today said the number of coronavirus cases in Mumbai and Delhi could be double than the official numbers being revealed by the respective state health departments.
He said more than half of total coronavirus cases are either not aware about the infection or are taking home tests and not informing the authorities.
Talking about his experience, Goenka said he called up two hospitals on Saturday and both said they were working at full capacity. He also urged people to take care of themselves amid a massive rise in Covid-19 tally.
As per the business tycoon, over 30 per cent of nurses and doctors are down with Covid-19 virus.
“If Mumbai/Delhi say 20,000 cases a day- probably it’s over 50,000. More than half, asymptomatic- not aware, rest taking home tests and not informing. Yesterday I called up two hospitals for a COVID bed. All full. And over 30% of nurses and doctors down with COVID. You take care,” he tweeted.
