With the monsoon round-the-corner, the Maharashtra government has adopted a comprehensive programme to combat the COVID-19 during the four wet months, officials said here on Saturday.

This includes augmenting the COVID-19 bed strength to around 2.90 lakh, plus over 8,500 ICU beds spread across Mumbai, Thane, Pune and other major hotspots around the state to cater to the anticipated mega spike in cases.
