“Due to alarming number of Covid-19 cases, we have decided to take the help of private doctors to consult the patients. We have set up 57 Moholla clinics where two doctors will check patients for two hours every day. The timing of each clinic will be different, so that the doctors can visit them on a rotational basis. They will be accompanied by nurses also. Any resident from the vicinity can go and get themselves checked free of cost at these clinics,” AMC chief officer Dr Prashant Rasal, said.

He added that the doctors can also recommend testing for any patient, even with minor symptoms..

Rasal said the clinics will remain operational till there are no Covid-19 cases in the city.
