Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope on Wednesday informed that not a single death was reported in the state due to lack of oxygen.

"Not a single patient has died due to lack of oxygen during the peak of Covid-19 in Maharashtra. Proper management of oxygen was done, always. Even at the time when about 65,000 patients were in Maharashtra, oxygen was properly arranged and provided to the patients.
