As far as PPE kits and masks are concerned, we have enough availability," said Dr Passey.Another nursing staff alleged: "We are staying at Gujarat Sadan now. Earlier the condition was worse. 17 girls used to stay in one dormitory. There were only two toilets. We used jet pipes for bathing as there was no bathroom.""Initially, we got a small accommodation in the Dental College where they were 10-15 beds in a room with a common toilet. After fighting for 10 days at least, LNJP Hospital's nursing staff was allotted Gujarat Sadan," said a nursing officer."We are being threatened to work when we ask for food. What should we do?
