🔴❓ 4 STEPS for Bed Allotment (ICU/Ventilator/O2/general) in Bengaluru ❓🔴
1. Get BU number (How? )
2. Call 1912 and register patient info (Important!)
3. Wait for bed allotment, follow up with your zone war room
4. If emergency, call 108 or 112
ICU and Ventilator bed requests pouring in nonstop, ~0 beds in BLR right now :(
Leads in all war-rooms, hospitals and contacts are exhausted.
Trying, but feeling helpless 😭💔
UPDATE
Jalaja Prasad found an ICU bed through Yelahanka Nodal Officer & is on the way to hospital. Thanks to all who amplified and called BBMP war rooms/leads hazaar times 💜🙏

~0 ICU beds in blr & nearby. Volunteers continuing to amplify requests but that alone isn’t helping much.
50+ critical ICU requests in last 12 hours, dire.
What else can we do to help today? Anybody from the ground who can help? Looking for suggestions 🙏
Volunteers on twitter amplifying & helping have gone from O2 cylinder to ICU bed to crematorium spot.
For the same patient. In under 24 hours. Devastating.

@peakbengaluru
landlords now demand equity as rent from startup founders.
Sorry
@kunalb11

Something really interesting happened last week when we were house-hunting in Bangalore.
A landlord, after understanding what our startup does, asked us for rent payment in stock options instead of cash.
