Chitral, October 17: Blood coming out from Operation Theater of DHQ hospital Chitral gives one goosebumps. The blood flows into a drainage channel and passes through an area where patients, their attendants and other visitors sit and talk. The same blood and contaminated water then flows to Zargarandeh area of Chitral area, mixing with the irrigation water.
The high contaminated fluid is likely to cause health problems for the community, staff, visitors patients and all other people living in the surrounding area.
Unfortunately, the hospital staff are not taking any measures to resolve this issue, creating a health hazard for the community.
