As soon as she got admitted, the access to the ICU was closed. All patients were diverted to another ICU. This ICU was occupied only by her. Only one out of 24 room in the ICU was used. They removed the cameras because they did not want everyone to be watching,”
The doctor also said that no visitors were allowed to meet the then CM in the ICU.
