Netizens criticise Hospital administration after Barkha Dutt engages in vulture journalism from ICU

The hospital management was also criticised for allowing Barkha Dutt to enter the ICU.

Barkha Dutt reported from inside the ICU of a hospital amidst the second wave of the Coronavirus pandemic, which has shocked people across the board. People on social media are wondering how a ‘journalist’ was permitted to enter the ICU when in Covid-19 cases, even families are not allowed to enter.

Barkha Dutt had earlier come under criticism after the death of her father with netizens accusing her of sensationalizing his death in order to further her personal agenda.

The hospital management was also criticised for allowing Dutt to enter the ICU.

Barkha Dutt had claimed after her father’s death that the oxygen in the ambulance had run out. However, Sonu, the ambulance driver, said that the oxygen cylinderwas full and Barkha Dutt herself had checked the supply.

“She interrupted me during the journey and repeatedly asked me to check the oxygen supply. I assured her that it was working fine. We had reached the hospital without any issues. We were accompanied by two of her vehicles. The patient’s caretaker was also with him. I had even stood outside the emergency department for 15-20 minutes. The patient also got down from the ambulance without any difficulty,” Sonu had said.
