At Present the business is zero and income is also zero as such people are being harassed and looted by the doctors.
During the period when the covid 19 is still going on the OPD’s in the Govt hospital have been order not to attend the patients as such the public has no other alternative except to go to private doctors who also give consultation online and ask the patients to deposit fees in their account and don’t attend the patients physically.
