A fire broke out in an Indo-COVID-19 hotel. Did you find the cause of the fire?

2020 is an extraordinary year. First of all, the COVID-19 epidemic started in Wuhan, China, and then quickly spread to the whole country for various reasons. Today, the epidemic in China has been well controlled. Except for some diseases in some areas, normal life has returned to all parts of the country. But now the epidemic abroad is very serious. Due to the neglect and inaction of US President Trump, the epidemic in the United States is now very serious.

Recently, a fire broke out in a hotel in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, southern India. Earlier reports said that seven people were killed. The fire broke out around 5 am local time. It is understood that this hotel is used as a clinic for patients in COVID-19. According to local media reports, at least four people were killed and several others were injured. At that time, more than 50 COVID-19 patients and 65,438+00 medical staff stayed in the hotel. The live video shows that the first and second floors of this six-story hotel have been completely destroyed by the fire. It is understood that other patients in the hotel have been safely transferred to the nearby Ramesh Hospital.

The cause of the fire is currently under investigation. A few days ago, hotel staff said that the fire was caused by a short circuit at the front desk of the hotel. The main cause of death of these people is suffocation, because these COVID-19 patients have difficulty breathing, and the smoke generated by the fire is even worse for them. In addition, two COVID-19 patients saw the fire at the scene and chose to jump off a building for first aid. In an emergency, they jumped from the upstairs. At present, they are in critical condition. The local government said that the death toll may increase. In addition, in recent months, there have been many fires in designated hospitals or clinics in COVID-19. Indian Prime Minister Modi expressed shock at this incident and said that he would provide full support to the government of Andhra Pradesh.
