The lockdown has led to the termination of all major transport facilities in the country. As COVID-19 is the topic of the hour, patients with symptoms of the infection are given prime importance now. However, there are thousands of other people who have symptoms of thyroid, PCOS, diabetes, kidney-related issues and more. Amid the shutdown, they are unable to take their routine treatments properly. Considering the situation, Ola has now started a special service in Gurgaon for non-COVID 19 patients.
What Is It?
Ola Cabs has collaborated with the Haryana Government to come up with a special network of cars dedicated solely for medical travel. This emergency service will enable travel to more than 100 hospitals in Gurgaon. These cars will have all the necessities for protection like masks and sanitizers. They will also be assigned with specially trained drivers. The service will be applicable for patients with diseases other than COVID-19 and physical injuries.
