Mayo Hospital Allegedly Leaves Dead Body Of COVID Victim In Ward With Recovering Patients
A video allegedly from the Mayo Hospital in Lahore has been doing the rounds on social media, where quarantined coronavirus patients claim that body of a deceased COVID patient has been left to decay in the isolation ward where recovering patients are kept.

Patients who are still battling for their lives can be seen in complete disbelief as they complain about the decaying corpse of the person who they say breathed his last at 10am on the morning of May 14.

The video also shows a child of about four years who has allegedly tested negative twice and is still kept in the same isolation ward with the corpse and other infected patients who have not yet recovered. A mother of three, gasping for breath, visibly affected by the virus is also shown making a desperate plea to the doctors who say that they are not ordered to look after the children but only adults.

The video also shows a woman calling out for a doctor in an emergency situation but no one responds. In another room, three doctors are shown resting with their masks on.
